The real test panel with the $200{\mu}m$ discharge gap in a coplanar AC plasma display panel was investigated. The auxiliary electrode was placed between two sustain electrodes and used for providing wall charges and prime particle during sustain period. The luminous efficiency had the maximum value when the voltage of the auxiliary pulses was 20 ${\sim}$ 100[V]. The luminous efficiency of coplanar long-gap discharge with auxiliary electrode was 2.6 times as much as that of the conventional structure.

본 연구는 스캔 구동 회로의 변화에 따른 교류형 플라즈마 표시기의 구동 특성에 관한 것이다. 본 연구에서는 교류형 플라즈마 표시기의 용량성 부하 특성을 활용하여 스캔 라인 당 소요되는 스위치의 수를 줄일 수 있는 회로를 제안하고 그 적용 가능성을 고찰하였다. 제안된 방식의 실용화 가능성에 대한 검증을 위하여 방전 유지 전압의 변화에 따라 어드레싱 전압의 변화를 관찰하여 동적 전압 마진을 측정한 결과, 기존 방식에 비하여 9[V] 가량의 전압마진 감소가 관찰되었다. 이는 제안된 방식의 경우 선택된 전극의 스캔 기간에 이웃한 전극에 전위에 영향을 줌으로써 상호 간섭이 유발되는 효과에 의한 것으로 해석되었다. 최소 어드레싱 전압과 어드레싱 방전의 방전 지연 시간에 변화가 없는 점을 감안하면 제안된 방식의 실제 회로 적용은 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

AC PDP에 사용되는 ITO 전극의 공정시간을 단축시키고 생산성을 향상시키기 위해서 Nd:$YVO_4$ laser를 사용하여 ITO 전극 패턴을 하였다. ITO etchant를 사용하여 ITO 전극패턴을 형성한 샘플과 비교해서 laser를 사용하여 제작한 샘플은 ITO 라인 끝 부분에 shoulder와 물결무늬가 형성되었다. shoulder와 물결무늬의 제거를 위해서 laser의 펄스반복율과 스캔 속도에 변화를 주었다. 또한 shoulder와 물결무늬를 갖는 ITO 전극이 PDP에 주는 영향을 알아보기 위해서 방전특성분석을 하였다. 실험결과 40 kHz와 500 mm/s를 기본 조건으로 결정하였다. 본 실험을 통하여 레이저를 이용한 PDP용 ITO 전극막의 직접 패터닝 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

We studied the effect of self-erase discharge on the luminous efficacy of ac PDPs. We observed through discharge current analysis to confirm that the selferase discharge occurred mainly between sustain cathode and address electrode, which have an influence on the luminous efficacy. The amount and timing of the self-erase discharge was varied to observe its effect on the luminous efficacy. It has been found that the luminous efficacy could be improved by the self-erase discharge when it is adjusted to occur right before the main discharge in the small gap structure. In the long gap structure, on the contrary, the luminous efficacy could be increased when the self-erase discharge is suppressed. Also, various waveforms to control self-erase discharge are suggested and tested in the panel experiments.

We analyzed the effect of cell resolution on the luminous efficacy through three-dimensional numerical simulation to understand the inherent discharge mechanism change in the plasma display panel. As the resolution increases from VGA to Full HD, the luminous efficacy decreases. With higher Xe content, VUV generation efficacy of Full HD becomes much lower than those of VGA or XGA cells, due to the increased plasma loss and lower electron heating. However a long electrode gap $140{\mu}m$ in Full HD cell with Ne-Xe [20%] results in the high luminous efficacy comparable to that of the XGA cell with $60{\mu}m$ gap. When comparing the effects of Xe content variation on the luminous efficacy of two different subpixel types, i. e., SDE (Segmented electrode in Delta color arrayed, Enclosed subpixel) [1] and conventional stripe barrier type in the XGA and Full HD cells, the luminous efficacy of SDE structure shows higher improvement in Full HD resolution compared with that of conventional type XGA cell, whose cause is identified as the reduced plasma loss.

In this paper, we suggest a new driving waveform for stable address discharge in AC PDP without the reduction of contrast ratio. To analyze the influence of cross-talk between discharge and non-discharge cells and verify that proposed waveform shows a stable address discharge, we measured the address discharge delay time. The proposed waveform shows the reduction of the cross-talk and concurrently the improvement of address voltage margin compared with those of selective reset waveform having one reset period in 1TV-Field..

This paper presents a study on the tubeless Plasma Display Panel (PDP) packaging using glass-to-glass electrostatic bonding with intermediate amorphous silicon. The bonded sample sealing the mixed gas with three species showed high strength ranging from 2.5 MPa to 4 MPa. The glass-to-glass bonding for packaging was performed at a low temperature of $180^{\circ}C$ by applying bias of 250 $V_{dc}$ in ambient of mixed gases of He-Ne(27 %)-Xe(3 %). The tubeless packaging was accomplished by bonding the support glass plate of $30mm{\times}50mm$ on the rear glass panel and the capping glass of $20mm{\times}20mm$. The 4-inch color AC-PDP with thickness of 8 mm was successfully fabricated and fully emitted as white color at a firing voltage of 190V.

The effects of ambient temperature on the discharge characteristics of Ne-Xe based micro discharge cells for ac-PDP (plasma display panel) have been studied. In ramp voltage driving, which is generally used as a reset method of PDP, two dissimilar modes of strong and weak discharge were found. As the interval between the former sustaining discharge and ramp voltage discharge becomes greater, the probability of a strong discharge increases. This suggests that a sufficient number of priming particles is necessary for initiating weak mode (Townsend discharge). It was discovered that under higher ambient temperatures, weak discharge occurs more frequently. The discharge time lag observed in square pulse driving of single cells becomes surprisingly smaller under higher ambient temperatures for the constant gas number density condition.

MgO layer plays an important role for plasma display panels (PDPs). In this experiment, ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) methode was uesed to deposit a MgO thin film and the assisting oxygen ion beam energy was varied from 100 eV to 500 eV. In order to investigate the relationship between the secondary electron emission and the defect levels of the MgO layer, we measured the cathodoluminescence (CL) spectra of the MgO thin films, and we analyzed the CL peak intensity and peak transition. The results showed that the assisting ion beam energy played an important role in the peak intensity and the peak transition of the CL spectrum. The properties of MgO thin film were also analyzed using XRD and SEM, these results showed the assisting ion beam energy had direct effect on characteristics of MgO thin film.

In this paper, we analyze on the discharge characteristics through 1-D simulations in an at plasma display panel discharge cell. The model is based on a Poisson' equation, continuity and drift-diffusion equation. Results are presented in a 95% neon, 5% xenon gas mixture, for a gap length of 100us and a gas pressure of 400Torr at ambient temperature. Results for other gap length are also discussed. As a result, an increase of the gap cause increase of luminous efficiency but with larger sustaining voltage.
