An external electrode fluorescent lamps (EEFLs) have the advantage of a long lifetime in the early stages of the study on plasma discharge, interest in the lamp continues. Studies on the operation of external electrode fluorescent lamps have focused mainlyon its use of a type of high frequency (MHz). By performing high brightness using a square wave operation method with the low frequency below 100kHz, which is applied to a narrowed tube type lamp that has several mm of lamp diameter, an EEFL presented the possibility of using it as a light source for backlights. However, because an EEFL generates plasma using wall charges, which considers the impedance characteristics of glass based on the structural principle in discharge, it can be significantly affected by frequency. Thus, this study verifies the change in the characteristics of electromagnetic fields according to the change in frequency through a Maxwell's electromagnetic field simulation and examines the relationship between the change in the EEFL frequency and brightness by measuring the optical. characteristics. In addition, the characteristics of the transformation of energy orbits were verified by investigating the characteristics of the wavelength according to the change in frequency through the OES.

We made a high-efficiency lamp with same spec. as a normal lamp by improving physical constants of a lamp and then analyzed varied effects. By applying novel physical constants to an EEFL, we acquired decrease of lamp operating power and voltage.

We investigated influence of gas pressure and mixing ratio on the electro-optical properties of External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp (EEFL). The experimental results indicated that luminance and efficiency became the maximum at lower gas pressure and Ar mixing ratio.

We study on the Electro Optical Properties of the EEFL (External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp) Backlight system is based on the lamp type characteristics and diameter of the lamp tube under the equal manufacturing of the lamps. In this contribution, through the analysis of the different lamp type and diameter of the lamp tube gain the effective luminance and reduce the lamp voltage from aspect in the electro optical properties with EEFL and LCD backlight system.

A circuit model simulating the electrical characteristics of EEFL(External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp) is proposed. The model is based on linear approximation that represents the equivalent resistance and capacitance as a function of power. Simulation waveforms and experimental results are presented to verify feasibility of the equivalent model.

TFT-LCD used in display area is not a light-emissive device itself but TFT-LCD can overcome through the employ of the backlight unit (BLU). BLU is very important device in TFT-LCD system. However, the old-fashion BLU of CCFL type is crucible to the health due to the contained material, mercury (Hg). Moreover, strong temperature dependency of lamp employed with Hg becomes the other disadvantage in practical usage. To solve these problems, Hg-Free lamp with strong thermal resistance property is required to displace the Hg lamp. We studied optical and electrical properties of Xe-Ne-He mixed gas that is dependent on change of mixed ratio and pressure. In our results, the designed lamp without the phosphorescent material has the lowest firing voltage at xe 50%(Ne:He=9:1).
