Certain materials can absorb energy from such sources as X-rays, ultraviolet light, or electrons, then re-emit the energy as visible light. These luminescent materials, called “phosphors,” are ubiquitous. Phosphors light up fluorescent light bulbs, television screens, computer screens, and signs and displays everywhere we look. These are the materials of interest to the Luminescence and Display Materials Division, featured in this issue.
