In a surface type ac PDP having $200{\mu}m$ gap between the surface electrodes, the luminous efficacy has a reciprocal dependence on the sustaining frequency. The discharge current flowing to the address electrodes are measured to investigate the phenomena and spectral intensity from visible light to infra red is measured to verify phosphor saturation with the frequency. Experiments show the discharge between the address and surface electrodes deteriorates the efficacy in high sustaining frequencies. Pulse width modulation is introduced to improve the efficacy. In optimum conditions, we obtained 1.99lm/w and 1.79lm/w at 200kHz and 250kHz, respectively.

현재 AC-PDP(Plasma Disphay Panel) 의 기술은 급속히 발전하고 있는 추세이지만 아직도 몇가지 문제로 인해 이를 해결하기 위한 다각적인 접근이 이루어지고 있다. 동화상 윤곽의 제거 광(光) 대비 향상을 통한 화질의 개선 신뢰도 및 전력 효율을 개선하는 등의 문제가 여기에 해당되며 그 중에서도 특히 전력 효율의 관점에서 40 인치 이상의 대형화면을 지향한는 PDP 기술에서 가장 큰 약점으로 분류되고 있는 수백 와트(watt)에 이르는 전려 소모를 CRT 수준이 200[W] 미만으로 낮추어 것이 시급한 당면 과제이다. 전려 효율을 향상시키기 위해서 PDP의 발광효율을 높이는 것과 함께 기체 장번과는 직접적인 관련이 없이 구동과정시 발생하게 되는 불필요한 전력소모를 최소화 하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 전력 소모를 최소화하기 위한 새로운 형태의 고효율 에너지 회수 회로를 제안하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 동작을 확인하였다. 또 이는 회로를 설제 7.5인치 패널에 인가하고, 200［kHz］에서 실험하여 제안한 고효율 에너지 회수회로의 타당성을 검증하였다.

최근 디지털 텔레비젼전 및 고해상도(High Definition) 텔레비전용 표시장치로 교류형 풀랴즈마 디스플레이가 각광 받고 있다. 상용화되고 있는 교류형 플라즈마 디스플레이의 구조를 보면 3전극행 면방전형(three electrodes surface discharge type)이 주류이다. 재의 효율은 11m/W의 수준으로 본격적인 상용화를 위해서는 효율의 향상이 관건이다. 효율 향상올 위해서는 패널 구조(Panel structure)의 개선도 필요하지만 주어진 구조에서 최대한의 효율을 갖도록하는 구동방법의 최적화가 선결 과제이다. 교류형 플라즈마 디스플레이의 방전 이미지는 연속되는 방전 발광에 의해 이루어 진다. 대부분의 전략 소모는 연속되논 발광을 위한 유지 방전에서 소모되기 때운에 유지방전의 파형의 최적화는 고 방전 효율을 위한 중요한 과제이다. 구동 방식으로서는 ADS(Address and Display period Separated) 구동이라는 방식이 일반적으로 널리 쓰이고 있다. 이 구동법의 평균 유지방전 주파수는 수십 [kHz]이지만 실제 주파수는 100[kHz]에서 200[kHz] 사이의 상당히 높은 값이다. 본 연구 결과에 따르면 형광체가 가시광을 방출시킬 때 형광체 재료의 특성상 감쇄시간(Decay Time)이 수 ms에 이른다. 만약 감쇄 시간이 유지방전 펄스으 주기보다 길다면 방전에서 만들어진 진공자외선(Vacuum Ultra Violet Rav)이 가시광으로 변환애 효과적으로 이용되지 못한다. 결국 발광 효율은 유지방전 주파수에 비례하여 감소한다. 결론적으로 말해 저 주파수 유지 방전으로 발광효율을 크게 개선할 수 있다.

A simple ray tracing model is developed to establish the relationship between the distributions of observed visible light and the excited Xe species in a PDP cell. The ray tracing model can obtain the density distribution of the excited Xe species. It shows the two independent discharge modes created during a single period of sustaining discharge. The maximum density of excited Xe species is located about $148{\mu}m$ away from the center of the gap between two sustaining electrodes. We also found the loss rate of VUV photons by comparing the luminance profile predicted in our theoretical model from experimental results. According to calculations based on our model, only about 22 percent of the photons can impinge the phosphor layer.

An address voltage stabilization circuit for the single-side driving (SSD) method for AC plasma display panels (PDP) is proposed. The single-side driving method, which eliminates a common sustaining driver, uses only two electrodes in a three electrode AC PDP structure. The high-impedance (Hi-Z) mode operation of the data drive ICs during the sustaining period is needed for surface gas-discharge without misfiring in the SSD method but it produces the problem that the address voltage increases up to the breakdown voltage. The proposed circuit based on a flyback converter can stabilize the address voltage under the breakdown voltage and provide better surface gas-discharge performance without any misfiring in the SSD scheme.

New concept of energy recovery for plasma display panel (PDP) Is proposed. Different from conventional LC resonant sustaining drivers, the current built up before inverting the polarity of the panel electrodes is utilized to change the panel Polarity together with energy Previously charged in Panel capacitance. This operation Provides zero -voltage-switching of switches and reduction of EMI by rejecting the surge current when the sustain switches are turned on. The build-up current helps to reduce transition time of panel polarity and may produce more stable light waveforms. This method shows a desirable characteristic that the circuit loss is similar to that of series resonant type energy recovery circuit which is very effective method.

Transparent ac-PDP test panel was prepared via a combination of materials including ITO sustaining electrodes, thin film dielectric layer and nano-sized phosphor powders. The thin film dielectric layer was prepared by E-beam evaporation process and phosphor layer was deposited on metal mesh pattern by electrophoretic deposition process. The optical transmittance and luminance of the panel indicated that full color transparent ac-PDP is feasible with the approach.

Socket-outlets and plugs are essential devices that supply electric power into user appliances. During plug-out operation of an engaged plug from the socket-outlet, the consistent arc between the plug and the socket-outlet could develop into heavy fires in DC systems but only a small spark in AC systems. This paper proposes a pre-/post-electrode method to prevent plugs and socket-outlets from melting by sustaining arc energy. To implement the proposed pre-/post-electrodes, an experimental plug is manufactured with two electrodes, in which a post resistance Rs is connected in between. This paper investigates the function of the post resistance Rs, in which the best value of the post resistance Rs is obtained through simulation and experiment.

Ionizers are essential in various areas of manufacturing industries to protect electrostatic hazards and to reduce inferior products. For ion sources used in the charge neutralizers, there are corona discharge, soft X-ray, ultraviolet and glow discharge. Glow discharge has lots of attractive properties, such as lower discharge sustaining voltage, no generation of ozone, and so on. In this paper, we did an experimental study to trace the mechanism and stabilization of atmospheric pressure glow discharge using the several size and shape of electrodes. As an experimental result, to sustain conditions of atmospheric pressure glow discharge is that discharge voltage is 360V, discharge current is 12mA, apply frequency is 1kHz between electrodes when positive electrode is molybdenum(Mo) and negative electrode is copper(Cu). We confirmed that the mechanism and stabilization of atmospheric glow discharge is deeply concerned with the shape and material of electrode for discharge. Especially, glow discharge in atmospheric pressure was well generated and sustained according with the physical properties used electrode materials, example melting point, thermal conductivity, and etc.
