The variation of discharge characteristics of an ac PDP was observed with the charge of scan electrode driving circuit. Conventional scan electrode driving circuit provides two switches per one scan line, and the suggested one can be constituted by one switch per one scan line with the consideration of capacitive load characteristic of an ac PDP. To verify the workability of the suggested scheme, the performances of the ac PDP was investigated. The dynamic voltage margin was slightly decreased with the adoption of the suggested scheme, which is estimated to result from the misfiring of unselected discharge cells due to the deformation of voltage level of the neighboring scan electrode. In the observation of the delay characteristics of addressing discharge, the performances of the conventional circuit and the suggested one are assumed to be equivalent.

In this paper we proposed a new electrode design to get an enhanced luminous efficiency in AC PDP. The width and shape of the TTO electrode were varied, and the electro-optical properties such as luminance, power consumption, luminous efficiency were estimated with the variation of frequency, duty ratio and applied voltage. The discharge characteristics were investigated to explain the effect of the new electrode structure on the electro-optical properties.

The efficacy improvement issues in a unit discharge cell have been approached from the structural considerations. The tested cell designs include (a) a coplanar type with annular auxiliary electrode buried in barrier ribs, (b) a coplanar type with split auxiliary electrodes also burred in barrier ribs and (c) a coaxial type with a floating electrode stacked on the base electrode. From spatiotemporally resolved optical images of near-IR emission taken by a gated-ICCD camera and relative VUV emission intensity estimated by laser absorption spectroscopy, the differences in the discharge and light emission performances of those three cell types have been compared and discussed.

In this paper, we investigated effects of ITO electrode geometry and dielectric layer thickness on the discharge Characteristic of AC PDP. As the dielectric thickness is decreased ($30{\sim}12{\mu}m$), firing and sustain voltage is decreased. Luminance and discharge power increase with decreasing dielectric layer thickness because of increasing capacitance between plasma and electrodes. Reactive power decreases with dielectric thickness due to reduced capacitance between sustain electrodes. For the high Xe test panel with small ITO electrode, luminous efficacy as well as luminance increase with decreasing dielectric layer thickness. This result suggest that high power density and small plasma volume is beneficial for high efficacy discharge.

We have developed a new PDP cell structure called MARI(${\underline{M}}ulti$ ${\underline{A}}node$ for ${\underline{R}}eduction$ of ${\underline{I}}onic$ effect) and new driving scheme achieving a high luminous efficacy. The MARI PDP has middle electrode inserted between X and Y main electrodes. In the MARI PDP, reset and scan voltage is applied to middle electrode and sustain voltage is applied to X and Y electrode. Using a long gap sustain discharge we accomplished a high luminous efficacy. And we developed 42”full panel adopting MARI structure and new driving scheme and attained luminous efficacy of 2.35lm/W.

It is known that the address discharge delay time during an address period strongly depends on the wall charge leakage. It was observed that the wall charge leakage during an address period is related to both the address width and the ambient temperature. Accordingly, the effects of address electrode width on the address discharge and wall voltage variation during an address period were examined under variable temperatures.

Several ITO-less PDP cell structures are presented to improve luminous efficacy. The ITO-less PDP have been applied recently at actual panel manufacture. The influence of ITO-less PDP cell structure on the discharge characteristics has been investigated by using three-dimensional fluid simulation. The variations of electrode geometry parameters such as gap distance, cross bar length, and hump length are investigated for the optimization of cell design.

Plasma display panel(PDP) is a leading technology for large-area flat panel displays. A current issue in operating the PDP cell is that the efficiency of the PDP cell is very low. To increase the efficiency of the PDP cell, the visible light needs to be maximized and the power consumption minimized. Since the excited xenons are related to the production of the visible light, it is important to optimize the cell geometry and the gas composition that produce the excited xenons more efficiently. A 2D-fluid code (FL2P) is developed and used to simulate the plasma dynamics and the radiation transport in the PDP cell. The cell is optimized with the code for various operating conditions and cell dimensions such as the voltage pulse, electrode length, electrode spacing, gap size, dielectric constant, gas mixture ratio, pressure, and pulse duration.

Nowadays, the most serious problems in AC PDP are high cost and a complex manufacturing process. To solve these problems, Fence electrode structure are newly suggested. In this paper, we investigated the the electrical and optical characteristics as the structure of Fence electrode was changed, and suggested the optimum width and arrangement of electrode.

A new front plate structure of ac-PDP using fence-type aluminum electrode coated with anodic aluminum oxide was investigated. In this structure, ITO and glass dielectric layer were eliminated and expensive Ag BUS electrode was replaced with aluminum. Test panels were prepared using the new structure and their luminance and discharge characteristics were examined. These results indicate that the new structure provide a new way of cost reduction and enhancement of performance of ac-PDPs
