8/3, said manufacturing method comprising;
obtaining a mixture by weighing and mixing raw material powders of this phosphor under an inert atmosphere;
maintaining and firing the mixture for 0.5 hours or more at 1000°
C. or more to obtain a fired product; and
pulverizing the obtained fired product to obtain a phosphor having a prescribed average particle size,wherein in the step of obtaining the fired product by firing the mixture, any one of nitrogen, ammonia, mixed gas of ammonia and nitrogen, or mixed gas of nitrogen and hydrogen is used as the atmosphere gas during firing, andfiring is performed while 0.01 L/min or more of the atmosphere gas in the firing furnace is ventilated.

Abstract
To provide a phosphor having an emission characteristic such that a peak wavelength of light emission is in a range from 580 to 680 nm, and having a high emission intensity, and having a flat excitation band with high efficiency for excitation light in a broad wavelength range from ultraviolet to visible light (wavelength range from 250 nm to 550 nm). For example, Ca3N2(2N), AlN(3N), Si3N4(3N), Eu2O3(3N) are prepared, and after weighing and mixing a predetermined amount of each raw material, raw materials are fired at 1500° C. for 6 hours, thus obtaining the phosphor including a product phase expressed by a composition formula CaAlSiN3:Eu and having an X-ray diffraction pattern satisfying a predetermined pattern.
