A new mercury-free flat fluorescent lamp with a single cell having dimension 2.2inches across the diagonal, had been developed which shows a wide, stable operating voltage margin, high luminance and luminous efficacy by adopting the bipolar pulse drive scheme. In this paper, the single cell is expanded into a multi-structured configuration to realize a 32inch sized panel across the diagonal by a simple repetition of the single cells. A driving scheme is proposed for a 2-bit areal selective dimming using dual auxiliary electrodes and bipolar drive scheme.

We proposed a new Mercury-free Flat Fluorescent Lamp (MFFL) for LCD backlight which shows a wide, stable operating voltage margin, high luminance and efficiency. In this paper, we expanded the single cell with 4 inch diagonal size into the multi-cell for the large size LCD-TV backlight application, examined its operating characteristics and proposed a driving scheme for 2-bit areal selective dimming control.
