Abstract

By using vacuum in-line driving and photoluminescence measuring method, we have observed the electrical and optical characteristics of the vacuum in-line sealing technology and analyzed the effect of the base vacuum level before filling the plasma gas. In the case of base vacuum level of $1{\times}10^{-3}$torr, the firing voltage of a 2-inch diagonal PDP panel was ranged from 310 to 345V depending on the plasma gas pressure of 200 to 300torr and luminous efficiency was ranged from 0.0227 to 0.0367 lm/W depending on the input voltage level of 330 to 225V. While, in the case of $1{\times}10^{-6}$, the characteristics were significantly improved. As a results, the firing voltage was ranged from 295 to 318V and luminous efficiency was from 0.0278 to 0.0451 lm/W.
