Abstract :
The purpose of this work is to study the relationship between the oxygen-rich concentration and brightness degradation in ZnS:TbOF green A.C. thin-film electroluminescent devices. The results showed that higher oxygen-content (O/Tb>1) in the phosphor layer not only created the deep hole traps (Et1 and/or Et2) but also yielded the EL devices with moisture. As a result, lower brightness was obtained
