Abstract

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.
