We developed novel molecular dynamics and quantum chemical molecular dynamics simulators for the design of MgO protecting layer in plasma display panel. These simulators were applied to the investigations on the destruction processes of the MgO protecting layer as well as the evaluation of its second electron emission ability. From the simulation results, we successfully proposed new guidelines for MgO protecting layer with high durability and high second electron emission ability.

Needle-like NiO protecting layers on NiCrAl alloy foam, used as support for hydrogen production, are introduced through electroplated Ni and subsequent microwave annealing. To improve the stability of the NiCrAl alloy foam, oxygen concentration of microwave annealing to form a needle-like NiO layer with good chemical stability and corrosion resistance is controlled in a range of 20 and 50 %. As the oxygen concentration increases to 50 %, needle-like NiO forms a dense coating layer on the NiCrAl alloy foam; this layer formation can be attributed to accelerated growth of the (200) plane. In addition, the increased oxygen concentration causes increased NiO/Ni ratio of the resultant coating layer on NiCrAl alloy foam due to improved rate of the oxidation reaction. As a result, the introduction of dense needle-like NiO layers formed at 50 % oxygen concentration improves the chemical stability of the NiCrAl alloy foam by protecting the direct electrochemical reaction between the electrolyte and the foam. Thus, needle-like NiO can be proposed as a superb protecting layer to improve the chemical stability of NiCrAl alloy form.

MgO Protecting layer in AC PDP prevents ion bombardment in discharge plasma. The MgO layer also has the additional importance in lowering the firing voltage due to a large secondary electron emission coefficient. Until now, the MgO protecting layer is mainly prepared by E-beam Evaporation. However, the optimum activation manufacturing process of MgO thin film wasn't well known. Therefore in this study, after MgO protecting layer is prepared on dielectric layer by E-beam evaporation and liquid MgO spin coating, we carried out activation process of MgO thin film as a parameter of Temperature, Operating time and Operating pressure. In addition, discharge characteristics are also studied as a parameter of activation conditions.

plasma-sprayed Cr$_2$O$_3$-based coatings containing MoO$_3$ were studied to gain a better understanding of the influence of MoO$_3$ composition in the coatings on their tribological behaviour. A reciprocal type tribo-tester was employed to examine friction and wear behavior of the specimens at high temperature(450。C). The physical characteristics of worn surfaces were investigated by scanning electron microscopy and chemical composition of the coating surfaces was analyzed using a X-ray photoelectron spectrometer. The results showed that friction coefficient of the MoO$_3$-added coatings were lower than those without MoO$_3$ addition. The larger protecting layers were observed at the worn surface of plasma spray coated specimens with MoO$_3$ addition. XPS analysis of the protecting layer indicated that MoO$_3$ composition was dominantly formed at the surface. MoO$_3$ composition in the protecting layer appears to be more favorable in reducing the friction.

Nano-porous alumina was investigated as a protecting layer in an AC Plasma Display Panel. A 2 ${\mu}m$ thick nano-porous $Al_2O_3$ layer inserted with MgO was formed on the dielectric layer instead of the conventional 500 nm-thick MgO thin film. Both nano-porous $Al_2O_3$layer and inserted MgO were prepared by wet process. The luminance and luminous efficiency of 3-inch test panel adopting nano-porous $Al_2O_3$ was higher than that of the conventional PDP.

Various compositions of$ Cr_2$$O_3$/Mo composite powders were fabricated using spray-drying method and plasma-spray coatings of these powders were prepared to understand their tribological properties. Experiments were conducted using a reciprocal type tribo-tester at room temperature under dry sliding condition. The worn surface of coated specimens were observed using SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) and chemical compositions were analyzed using XRD (X-ray Diffractometry) and XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy). The results showed that friction coefficient of the Mo added specimens were lower than that of $Cr_2$$O_3$specimen. However $Cr_2$$O_3$specimen showed the lowest wear loss. Wear protecting layer were observed at the worn surface of coated specimens with Mo addition. From the XPS analysis, the mixed phases of $Cr_2$$O_3$ $CrO_3$and $MoO_3$were founded in the wear protecting layer.

We developed ultra-accelerated quantum chemical molecular dynamics and characterization simulators for study and design of plasma display panel (PDP) related materials. By use of these simulators, realistic structure of PDP materials is drawn on the computer. Furthermore, based on the structures, various properties such as secondary electron emission coefficient are successfully evaluated. In this report, we will discuss the theoretical secondary electron emission coefficient for several protecting layer materials and the effect of surface structure on the properties based on the result of atomistic simulations.

In this paper, we showed the erosion characteristic of MgO protector layer releated to lifetime of plasma display panel(PDP). We observed MgO erosion characteristic as a functions of deposition conditions, pressure and distance between electrodes. In RIE condition of Xe gas, the lowest erosion rate appears in the conditions of no heating bias voltage -30V and pressure 5mtorr. In general, as deposition rate increases, erosion rate decreases. In real panel, when the gap distance between electrodes is narrow and the pressure is low, the heavy plasma damage appears. Also, the surfaces between electrodes and on the bus electrode are extremely damaged.

The optical and electrical characteristics of plasma display panel(PDP) using the vacuum in-line sealing technology compared with the conventional sealing process in this research. This PDP consisted of MgO protecting layer by e-beam evaporation and battier rib, transparent dielectric layer, dielectric layer, and electrodes by screen printer and then sealed off on Ne-Xe(4 ％) 400 Torr and 430。C. The brightness and luminous efficiency were good as the base vacuum level was higher, and it was to check the advantage of high vacuum level sealing, one of the strong points of the vacuum in-line sealing process. However, the brightness and luminous efficiency was dropped sharply because of a crack on MgO protecting layer by the difference of the expansion and contraction stress on high temperature in the vacuum states between MgO and substrate. Fortunately, the crack was prevented by MgO was deposited on higher temperature than 300。C. Finally, the PDP, was fabricated by the vacuum in-line sealing process, resulted the lower brightness than processing only the thermal annealing treatment in the vacuum chamber, but the luminous efficiency was increased by the reducing power consumption with the decreasing luminous current. The vacuum in-line sealing technology was not to need the additional thermal annealing process and could reduce the fabrication process and bring the excellent optical and electrical properties without the crack of MgO protecting layer than the conventional sealing process.

However pure Cr$_2$O$_3$coating showed the lowest wear loss at the self-mated test. The larger protecting layers were observed at the worn surface of plasma spray coated specimens with MoO$_3$addition. XPS analysis of the protecting layer indicated that MoO$_3$composition was dominantly formed at the surface. MoO$_3$composition in the protecting layer appears to be more favorable in reducing the friction.
