Recent developments are reviewed in the field of cathodoluminescence and electroluminescence. Emphasis is placed on the applications of luminescence to electronics, although some attention also is given to simplified explanations of the phenomena involved. Included are discussions of transparent phosphor films for "fiat" cathode-ray tubes and other purposes, solid-state image display devices, and solid-state radiation converters and amplifiers.
