In this paper the preparation of evaporated E. L films of ZnS; Cu, Mn, CI phosphor was reported and the optical and electrical properties as well as the waveforms of the emitted light waves was compared for both thin films and thick films. The electroluminescent brightness follows the equation
B=
B0exp(-b/√
V) over a certain range of alternating voltage, but its dependence with voltage was different in thin and thick films. In thin films the electrolumi-nescent brightness changed remarkably with the direction of the applied voltage but not so in thick films. The brightness and waveforms in thick films mainly depend on voltage where as in thin films they depend on current. The brightness waves of Al-SiO-ZnO cell in which SiO was inserted between the Al electrode and the ZnS film was similar to those of thick films on the voltage dependence, so in thick films an insulation layer, which seems to play a role in the excitation mechanism of E. L, appears to be formed between the Al electrode and the ZnS film.
