Abstract
A ZnS thin-film electroluminescent element which exhibits the hysteresis phenomenon within the light emission versus applied voltage characteristics, the electric current versus applied alternating voltage characteristics, or the electric current phase versus applied alternating voltage characteristics. The ZnS element comprises a ZnS EL thin-film including Mn serving as a luminescent center with a concentration of 0.05-5.0 wt. %, and a pair of dielectric layers made of rare earth oxides or oxides groups of III, IV and V of the Periodic Table. The EL thin-film is sandwiched between the pair of the dielectric layers. The ZnS EL thin-film is made by applying the electron-beam heating evaporation technology to a ZnS pellet.
