Glasses in the $Bi_{2}O_3-SiO_2-ZnO$ glasses system were examined as a potential replacement for lead-oxide glass frits with low firing temperature ($500\sim600^{\circ}C$) for the dielectric layer of a plasma display panel (PDP). The glasses were evaluated for glass transition temperature($T_{g}$) and thermal expansion coefficient(${\alpha}$). After forming transparent thick films by a screen-printing method, it was evaluated for the optical properties. The transmittance of thick films fired at $500-600^{\circ}C$ showed above $80\%$, which was not dependent on the firing temperature. As a result, many pores were observed at samples fired at low temperature, while the number of pores from samples prepared at high temperature decreased and the pores size increased.

The formation degree of sustain (ITO pattern) decides quality of PDP (Plasma Display Panel). For this reason, it makes efforts in searching defects more than 30 un as 100%. Now, the existing inspection is dependent upon naked eye or microscope in off-line PDP manufacturing process. In this study developed prototype inspection system of PDP 170 glass is based on line-scan mechanism. Developed system creates information that detects and sorts kinds of defect automatically. Designed inspection technology adopts multi-vision method by slip-beam formation for the minimum of inspection time and detection algorithm is embodied in detection ability of developed system. Designed algorithm had to make good use of kernel matrix that draws up an approach to geometry. A characteristic of defects, as pin hole, substance, protrusion, are extracted from blob analysis method. Defects, as open, short, spots and et al, are distinguished by line type inspection algorithm. In experiment, we could have ensured ability of inspection that can be detected with reliability of up to 95% in about 60 seconds.

저온소성 가능하며 저 융점유리인 고 투과율의 Pb-free 조성으로서 PDP(Plasma Display panel)의 투명유전체에 응용하고자 P$_2$O$_{5}$-ZnO-RO 계인 인산염 유리의 열적, 광학적성질을 연구하였다. 이 삼원계인 인산염유리계를 PDP의 투명 유전체에 응용하기에는 열적특성에서 문제점이 제기되어, (30-50)P$_2$O$_{5}$ - (20-50)ZnO - (15-45) RO (mol%)계에 유리망목형성제인 A1$_2$O$_3$, SiO$_2$, B$_2$O$_3$등을 첨가하여 열적성질 및 소성후 투광성 등을 조사하였다. 열적특성은 DTA와 TGA를 이용하여 유리전이점(Tg) 및 선팽 창계수(CTE)와 연하점(Ts) 을 측정하였으며, 투광성은 500-58$0^{\circ}C$에서 1시간동안 소성하여 UV-visible spectrometer을 이용하였다 그 결과로, 380-46$0^{\circ}C$의 Tg와 8-$10^{-6}$K의 CTE 및 70-80%의 광투과율을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 P$_2$O$_{5}$-ZnO-RO계는 PDP의 투명유전체에 적용하기에는 상당히 높거나 낮은 Tg를 형성하였지만 유리형성제를 수 mol%을 첨가함으로써 적절한 Tg점과 높은 투과율을 얻을 수 있었다.수 있었다.

현재 PDP(Plasma Display Panel) 투명유전체층은 PbO 계열을 사용하고 있으나 제조공정 시 다량의 중금속 페기물이 방출됨에 따라 환경오염을 야기시킴으로 무연조성이며 저온소성이 가능한 저융점유리인 인산염계 유리에 대한 열적, 화학적, 광학적 특성에 대해 체계적인 연구가 진행되었다. 광학적 특성을 위 한 승온속도, 소성온도, 유지시간의 변화 그리고, 프릿 입도에 따른 광 투광성, 기포의 형성, 그리고 기포의 분포특성을 연구하였다. 열적특성은 DTA와 TMA를 이용하여 유리전이점(Tg) 및 선팽창계수(CTE)와 Littleton softning point (Ts)가 측정되었다. 광학적특성은 스크린프린팅법으로 후막 제조 후 소성하여 UV-visible spectrometer을 이용하여 300~800nm영역에서 투광성을 측정하였으며, FEG-SEM, AFM을 이용해 표면을 관찰하였다. 결과로써, Tg는 440-46$0^{\circ}C$ 와 CTE는 7~8.5$\times$$10^{-6}$K값을 보였고 높은 화학적 내구성과 60-80%의 광투과율을 나타내었다. 프릿의 미세화, 숭온속도의 감소는 기포의 생성을 줄이는데 효과를 보였으며, 그 결과 양호한 광투과율을 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 결과에 따르면, P$_2$O$_{5}$-ZnO-RO 조성은 PDP용 투명유전체 조성으로써 기존의 PbO계열을 대체할만한 새로운 조성으로 고려된다.

Powder injection molding (PIM), which combines the advantages of powder metallurgy and plastic injection molding technologies, has become one of the most efficient methods for the net-shape production of both metal and ceramic components. In this work, plasma display panel glass bodies are prepared by the PIM process. After sintering, the hot isostatic pressing (HIP) process is adopted for improving the density and mechanical properties of the PIMed glass bodies. The mechanical and thermal behaviors of the prepared specimens are analyzed through bending tests and dilatometric analysis, respectively. After HIPing, the flexural strength of the prepared glass body reaches up to 92.17 MPa, which is 1.273 and 2.178 times that of the fused glass body and PIMed bodies, respectively. Moreover, a thermal expansion coefficient of $7.816{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$ is obtained, which coincides with that of the raw glass powder ($7.5-8.0{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$), indicating that the glass body is fully densified after the HIP process.

The two-transformer full bridge (TTFB) PWM converter has two transformers which act as the output inductor as well as the main transformer, i.e. as the forward and the flyback transformer. Although the doubled leakage inductor of the TTFB makes it easier to achieve the zero-voltage switching (ZVS) of the lagging leg switch along the wide load range, it instigates a serious voltage ringing in the secondary rectifier diodes, which would require the dissipative snubber circuit, cause the serious power dissipation, and increase the voltage stress across those diodes. To overcome these problems, a, new lossless diode-clamp rectifier (LDCR) is employed as the output rectifier, which helps the voltage across rectifier diodes to be clamped on a half the output voltage $(V_o/2)$ or the output voltage $(V_o)$. Therefore, no dissipative snubber for rectifier diodes is needed and a high efficiency as well as low noise output voltage can be realized. The operations, analysis and design consideration of proposed converter are presented in this paper. To verify the validity of the proposed converter, experimental results from a 425W, 385-170Vdc prototype for the plasma display panel (PDP) sustaining power module (PSPM) are presented.

The relationships between discharge characteristics and sustain electrode shape are studied in AC PDP by calculating the electric field and measuring discharge voltage, luminance and current. The maximum electric field is obtained for the triangle shape electrode. It is 1.8 times larger than uniform electric field type. It has been shown thatthe firing voltage is largely affected by the degree of electric field concentration. But, as the difference of the maximum and minimum value of electric field in a cell increases, the luminance and luminance efficiency decrease. And, the charge variation during discharge is proportional to the area of electrode.

This paper proposes a method to drive an AC plasma display panel(PDP) with a significantly improved contrast ratio. In the proposed method, during the first sub-field of one frame, all PDP cells are reset by the ramp waveform, and during the other sub-field, only the cells turned on in the previous sub-field are reset. No light is emitted during the reset period of every sub-field except the first sub-field. For a 10-bit picture, the luminance of the dark level for the proposed method is 10 times lower than that for the conventional method, in which the ramp waveform for the reset is used in every sub-field. Accordingly, the contrast ratio for the proposed method is 10 times higher than that for the conventional method. For the 10-bit picture, the measured contrast ratio was about 3080:1 for the proposed method and about 285:1 with the conventional method, a result the contrast ratio has been increased in 10.8 times. This result shows that the proposed method can realize an image with high contrast ratio.

우리는 AC-PDP에서 휘도와 효율을 향상시키기 위하여 Ne-Xe(4%)와 He(7)-Ne(3)-Xe(3%)에 소량의 Ar 또는 Kr를 첨가하여 최적의 페닝 방전가스 혼합비를 연구하였다. 우리는 이것을 증명하기 위해 효율과 Q-V 방법을 이용하여 벽전하를 계산하였으며, 2차원 시뮬레이션에서의 결과값과 비교하였다. 200 Torr 압력에서 He-Ne-Xe 또는 Ne-Xe에 소량의 Ar(0.01-0.1%) 또는 Kr(0.01-0.1%)을 첨가시켰을 때, 우리는 20% 이상의 휘도의 증가와 25% 이상의 효율 증가를 발견하였고, 또한 벽전하도 25% 이상의 증가를 보였다. 400 Torr 압력에서 He-Ne-Xe-Kr(0.005%)에 소량의 Ar(0.005-0.1%)를 첨가시켰을 때는 8% 이상의 휘도의 증가와 18% 이상의 효율 증가, 12% 이상의 벽전하 증가를 확인하였다. 결론적으로 이 결과는 He, Ne, Ar, Kr 사이에 추가적인 페닝효과가 휘도와 효율을 향상시켰다는 것을 보여준다.
