Phosphors

Phosphors are materials that emit light when they are energized by a source such as electricity or ultraviolet rays. They contain atoms that, upon stimulation, release energy as visible light. Used in screens, fluorescent lights, and glow-in-the-dark products, phosphors convert energy into specific colors, providing vibrant visuals or illumination. Their ability to produce different colors depends on their chemical composition, making them essential in many display and lighting technologies.
