Summary:To provide a driving method capable of reducing afterglow of a specific color caused by slow afterglow characteristics when driving a light-emitting device 40 for exciting two types of phosphors 52 having different afterglow characteristics by the same light-emitting element 60.SOLUTION: Provided is a driving method of a light-emitting device 40 including: a light-emitting element 60; and a light-emitting unit 50 including two or more types of phosphors 52 excited by the light-emitting element 60 and having different afterglow characteristics. An energization period 20 of the light-emitting device 40 includes: a maximum current supply period 21 for supplying the light-emitting element 60 with a maximum current I11 in the energization period 20; and a current reduction period 22 of continuously or step by step decreasing a current supplied to the light-emitting element 60 from the maximum current I11 next to the maximum current supply period 21.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】異なる残光特性を有する2種類の蛍光体52を、同一の発光素子60で励起する発光装置40を駆動する際に、残光特性が遅いことに起因する特定色の残光を低減できる駆動方法を提供する。【解決手段】発光素子60と、前記発光素子60によって励起される、残光特性の異なる2種類以上の蛍光体52を含む発光部50と、を含む発光装置40の駆動方法であって、前記発光装置40の通電期間20が、前記発光素子60に前記通電期間20における最大電流I11を供給する最大電流供給期間21と、前記最大電流供給期間21の次に、前記発光素子60に供給する電流を、前記最大電流I11から連続的に又は段階的に低下させる電流低下期間22と、を含む、方法。【選択図】図3
