In this paper, several energy recovery circuits (ERC) for the plasma display panel (PDP) are reviewed and classified in a manner of operation characteristics. A typical ERC using the Regenerative Transformer (RT) is introduced and compared with conventional ones. RT-ERC can achieve zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) for main full-bridge switches and zero-current-switching (ZCS) for the resonant switches and diodes. The charging/discharging energy of panel capacitance is efficiently recovered with the RT and without a sub-circuit. The presented circuit is verified with simulation and experimental results.

We have measured the excited Xe atoms density in the $1s_5$ metastable states by laser absorption spectroscopy in accordance with various barrier ribs. In this experiment, the average density of one cell in the panel with stripe barrier rib has been measured to be $1.8{\times}10^{12}cm^{-3}$. The panel with close type barrier rib has been measured to be $5.1{\times}10^{12}cm^{-3}$.

An improved dual-path energy recovery circuit (ERC) using a current source and a voltage source for plasma display panel (PDP) is proposed. The proposed ERC uses the voltage source to charge a panel and the current source to discharge the panel. Thus, the proposed circuit can make the panel charge to $V_S$ and discharge to 0V, fully and it is possible to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) of all switches in H-bridge inverter and zero current switching (ZCS) of all switches in the ERC. Moreover, it has less conduction and switching loss in ERC devices by the dual energy recovery paths for charging and discharging the panel. Furthermore, it has features of canceling the gas discharge current, high performance and the low cost ERC components. The operation principle and features of the proposed ERC are presented in detail and verified with 42-inch SD PDP.

A shielding effectiveness of mesh screen filter of plasma display panel (PDP) has been calculated in this paper. Since the screen filter is located near the radiation source, the near field wave impedance of the radiation source, i.e., the PDP electrodes, has been considered to calculate the shielding effectiveness. The near field shielding effectiveness of screen filter at 30${\sim}$300 MHz has been estimated to be more than 65${\sim}$80 dB. The measured shielding effectiveness of screen filter is 10${\sim}$50 dB at 30${\sim}$300 MHz[1]. The resulting discrepancy indicates that there are other EMI emission sources such as emission from PCB and cable besides the PDP electrodes.

Application of inorganic silica-neodymia alloy films grown by sputtering technology to the dielectric layer of plasma display panel (PDP) is presented. The experimental results reveal that dielectric constant of the alloy films increases with neodymia concentration. Also, the alloy films act as band rejection color filter owing to sharp absorptions originating in the intratransition within the 4f shell of the $Nd^{3+}$ ion. In the optical band pass region, the transmittances of the alloy films show higher than those of commercial glass-like dielectrics. As a result, the luminance of PDP device with the alloy dielectric layer is higher than that of device with conventional dielectrics, indicating wider color gamut and higher color purity.

The surface discharge type ac plasma display panel(ac PDP) is a flat display devices using gas discharge. In ac PDP, parallel electrodes covered with dielectric layer are on a substrates. The discharge current characteristics are affected by cell structure. In this study, the relationship between the principal design factor and discharge characteristics is discussed, based on experiment, and the current waveform is measured by voltage detector and storage O.S.C. as a parameter of design factor, e.g., electrode gap and width.

We have investigated the electro-optical characteristics of AC-PDP with different MgO protective layers, which have been deposited by electron beam evaporation from various sintered pellets with different temperatures. We have measured the secondary electron emission coefficient ($\gamma$) by using the Gamma Focused Ion Beam ($\gamma$-FIB) system, the static margin, and the address delay time. Also, we have investigated photoluminescence (PL) characteristics for understanding the energy levels of MgO pellets and protective layers.

The formation degree of sustain (ITO pattern) determines the quality of a PDP (Plasma Display Panel). Thus, in the present study, we attempt to detect 100% of the defects that are larger than $30{\mu}m$. Currently, the inspection method in the PDP manufacturing process is dependent upon the naked eye or a microscope in off-line mode. In this study, a prototype inspection system for PDP ITO patterned glass is developed. The developed system, which is based on a line-scan mechanism, obtains information on the defects and sorts the defects by type automatically. The developed inspection system adopts a multi-vision method using slit-beam formation for minimum inspection time and the detection algorithm is embodied in the detection ability. Characteristic defects such as pin holes, substances, and protrusions are extracted using the blob analysis method. Defects such as open, short, spots and others are distinguished by the line type inspection algorithm. It was experimentally verified that the developed inspection system can detect defects with reliability of up to 95% in about 60 seconds for the 42-inch PDP panel.

This paper proposes a relative lifetime test method of MgO thin film. The suggested test conditions are 5$0^{\circ}C$, 400Torr, 20% over-voltage and 300KHz. The relative lifetime of MgO thin film is significantly affected by the MgO preparing conditions and Xe partial pressure. As result, the lifetime of the AC plasma display panel (PDP) is increased with an MgO thickness of 2000$\AA$ to 8000$\AA$ but is saturated over 5000$\AA$ (up to 9000 $\AA$). In addition, as Xe partial pressure increases, AC PDP lifetime increases.

The newly designed Ac-PDP(plasma display panel with comb-type electrode) structure was fabricated by using the screen printing method and the electrical and optical characteristics were measured under the various discharge conditions. The minimum firing voltages measured under pure Ne and Ne+Xe mixture gas with the application of 10 kHz square wave were 190V and 160V, respectively. The firing voltages of the PDP cell with the comb-type electrode were compared with those of the cell with matrix electrode under the same discharge condition. The firing voltage of the PDP cell with comb-type electrode was 15 V lower than that of the PDP cell with conventional matrix electrodes.
