We investigated the effect of relative dielectric constant of front dielectric layer on the efficacy of plasma display panel. Dielectric materials with relative dielectric constant of around 6 and 7 were developed. When the front dielectric layer had a low relative dielectric constant, power consumption decreased more than luminance did. And it led to efficacy enhancement. However, the minimum sustain voltage increased.

The fabrication of micro-scale irregular holes by using PMMA (Poly Methyl Methacrylate) beads in the front dielectric layer was proposed to improve luminous efficacy of an ac plasma display panel. Through the firing process of front dielectric layer, bowl shaped holes with a depth of $2.5{\mu}m$, a top diameter of $8-12{\mu}m$, and a bottom diameter of $4-7{\mu}m$ were fabricated. The proposed ac plasma display panel with the irregular micro-scale holes improved the luminous efficacy by 18 % due to the decrease in the minimum sustain voltage.

Transparent dielectric layer having color-filter function in front panel for PDP(Plasma Display Panel) was successfully fabricated and characterized. Transparent dielectric layer in front panel was made of glass based on $PbO-SiO_2-B_2O_3$ ternary system. The change of properties with content variation of oxide colorants in transparent dielectric layer having color-filter function was systematically accessed. It was demonstrated that the optimized content of oxide colorants to parent glass could greatly increase up contrast ratio and color temperature without significantly degrading luminance.

Up to date, the dual scanning method has been adopted to decrease address-ing period in AC PDP. In this case, addressing period can be reduced, but the driving circuit cost should be increased. In this study, to increase addressing speed we have studied the relationship between addressing speed and cell structure. That is to say, we varied the thickness of dielectric layer on the front glass, the thickness of white back and the height of barrier rib on the rear glass. So, we found that the addressing time was decreased 4% with decreasing 5um thickness of dielectric layer on the front glass and 2um thickness of white back on the rear glass. Also in case of decreasing the height of barrier rib, addressing time was decreased about 4% per 10um.

The glass compositions of $PbO-SiO_2-B_2O_3$ system and $P_2O_5-PbO-ZnO$ system for the transparent dielectric materials for front panel and $P_2O_5$-ZnO-BaO and $SiO_2-ZnO-B_2O_3$ for the reflective dielectric materials for back panel of PDP (Plasma Display Panel) were investigated. As a result, transparent dielectric materials for front panel showed good dielectric properties, high transparency, and proper thermal expansion matching to soda lime glass substrate. And the reflective dielectric layers for back panel were prepared from two series of parent glass and oxide filler. It was found that these glassceramics are useful materials for dielectric layers in PDP device, as they have similar thermal expansion to soda-lime glass plate, high reflectance, and low sintering temperature. In particular, the addition of $BPO_4$ and $TiO_2$ as fillers to $SiO_2-ZnO-B_2O_3$ system is considered to be the most effective for acquiring good properties of lower dielectric layer for PDP device.

To fabricate mono layer green sheet (MLGS) of transparent dielectric for PDP front panel, dispersion of transparent dielectric slurry and various properties of green sheets were examined as a function of amount and kinds of organic additives. Sedimentation height and viscosity of slurry were measured to determine proper types and amount of dispersant in non-aqueous system transparent dielectric slurry. Many MLGS having various ratios of the transparent dielectric glass frit, binder and plasticizer were fabricated. Finally we got the transparent dielectric layer of high transparency and free from residual pore might be remained in the gap between the electrodes.

We reported an AC PDP structure with grooved front panel dielectric layer. The structure exhibits low breakdown voltage, better luminance, and better endurance to crosstalk in high Xe contents. It also shows less luminous efficacy then conventional structure because of the thinner dielectric layer, but we can apply the higher Xe contents to the grooved dielectric structure, which results in the higher luminous efficacy. We made experiments with the Xe contents from 4 to16% and total gas pressure from 400 to 600Torr. The grooved dielectric structure shows the improvement of 20% luminous efficacy and 17% luminance. The firing voltages lower about 40V at 600Torr and Xe 12, 16%. The discharge characteristics of grooved dielectric structure are verified also with 2D simulation.

The influence of the grooved dielectric layer on discharge and luminous characteristics has been investigated for various depths of the groove to achieve a high luminance efficiency AC-PDP operated at a lower voltage. We use the voltagethreshold curve technique and address delay jitters to explain the discharge characteristics. It shows that the surface discharge voltage rely on the depth of the grooved dielectric layer. Vertical discharge voltage remains almost the same as the groove depth increases.

Low sustained voltage $(V_s)$ and high luminous efficiency (lumen/Watts) are required for the enhanced performance of an AC PDP. Both are not realized in the same condition, however, because luminous efficiency decreases when the sustained voltage is lowered in most cases. In this study, the three design factors in the front panel of a PDP, i.e., the thickness and position of the bus electrode and the thickness of the dielectric layer, were chosen to investigate how they affect the sustained voltage and the luminous efficiency, and to find a way to optimize them. Two values were given to each of the three design factors, and experiments were done via full factorial design, i.e., with a total of eight conditions, using a 3-in.diagonal test panel. The changes in the sustained voltage and the luminous characteristics were explained in connection with the discharge characteristics of the PDP cells.

In some previous studies, the effect of the microcapillary hole structure in the front dielectric layer was introduced. There have not yet been any report, however, on the detailed study on the discharge characteristics of the hole type, and on the optimization of the microscale hole size. In this study, the discharge characteristics of the microscale hole types in the front dielectric layer in plasma display panels were investigated through plasma numerical simulation. The numerical analysis discussed in this work may shed more light on the discharge mechanism. The modification of the structure of microscale holes is expected to improve the driving voltage and luminance, which may have been due to more energetically charged particles and Xe-excited species, which may in turn have been due to an expanded sheath electric field in the vicinity of the microholes.
