A phosphor become luminescent in some conditions (in fluorescent lights under electrical discharge); a phosphor is not the chemical element phosphorus.
The phosphor in a fluorescent light bulb converts ultraviolet light emitted by the mercury vapor into visible light. This process creates the bright, white light that we see when a fluorescent bulb is turned on.
A phosphor activator is a chemical substance added to a phosphor material to enhance its luminescent properties. It works by promoting the efficiency of the energy transfer process within the phosphor material, leading to brighter and more long-lasting light emission.

No, highlighters do not contain phosphor. Highlighters typically use fluorescent dyes to create their bright, neon colors. Phosphor is commonly found in materials such as screens, light bulbs, and some types of paints.
Phosphor burn-in is a display issue where prolonged static images can cause uneven wear on the phosphor coating of a screen, resulting in a faint, persistent image being displayed even when the screen content changes. This is commonly seen in older CRT and plasma displays. Modern displays like LCDs and OLEDs are less susceptible to phosphor burn-in.
The main function of phosphor in fluorescent lighting is to convert invisible ultraviolet light into visible white light. When excited by ultraviolet light, phosphor emits visible light of various colors depending on its composition, producing the illumination we see in fluorescent lamps.

Can I have that axe, to better maim you with?
Maim That Tune was created in 1995.
Phosphor.
To maim is to injure severely, usually permanently, or to cripple.
You will maim that horse if you keep whipping it.

Even a small motorcycle wreck can maim you for life.
The Kannada word for 'phosphor' is Ranjaka.
depends on who you want to maim (e.g. by throwing language at them) ;-)
