Provided is a
phosphor having a high
emission intensity even if combined with an LED of less than 450 nm, a method for manufacturing the same, and a light-emitting device,
image display device,
pigment, and an
ultraviolet absorber using the same. The
phosphor according to the present invention includes: an inorganic
crystal having the same
crystal structure as a
crystal represented by Ba2Li1Al1Si2O8, the
organic crystal including a
Li element, an A element, a D element, an E element, and an X element (where A is at least one kind of element selected from the group consisting of Mg, Ca, Sr, and Ba, D is at least one kind of element selected from the group consisting of Si, Ge, Sn, Ti, and Zr, E is at least one kind of element selected from the group consisting of B, Al, Ga, In, and Sc, and X is an element including at least O); or an
inorganic compound in which an M element (where M is at least one kind of element selected from the group consisting of Mn, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Tb, Dy, and Yb) is dissolved in this
solid-solution crystal.
