A systematic investigation of the electroluminescent (EL) ZnS thin film devices doped with rare earth centers, SmF3 (red), TbF3 (green), and TmF3 (blue), is made to examine the possibility of multicoloring. Various characteristics, such as brightness, emission efficiency, decay time, EL spectra, and their concentration dependences are measured. The number of photons emitted from these devices is also estimated to discuss quantum efficiencies. For SmF3 and TmF3 activators, it is found that concentration quenching of EL emission takes place through non-radiative crossrelaxation process. No such quenching is observed for TbF3 activators. In TmF3 activators, most of the radiative energy is found to be emitted in the infrared region. The impact excitation cross-section for these rare earth compounds is also inferred to be lower compared with that of Mn2+ ions.
