The luminance of phosphor is enhanced by forming a phosphor screen of a fluorescence
generation unit by phosphor expressed by the following composition formula: (L1-a-bGdaCeb)3(Al1-cGac)5O12:Md
wherein, a, b and c are each in the following ranges of 0a1.0,
0b0.1 and 0c1.0, M is dopant of a monovalent metal
element and is included in phosphor by approximately 0d1000 wt-ppm.
Dopant M of a monovalent metal element is at least one type of element selected
from a group consisting of K, Na, Li, Cu, Ag and Au. Thus, a display using a white
light of improved luminescence and having excellent characteristics can be realized.
