Abstract

The effects of various sustain waveforms on the discharge characteristics, such as discharge current waveform, IR waveform, luminance, luminous efficiency, power consumption, and static margin are investigated under high Xe (20%) gas mixture at 200 kHz. The four types of sustain waveforms, such as non-overlapped sustain waveform without auxiliary pulse, non-overlapped sustain waveform with auxiliary pulse, overlapped sustain waveform without auxiliary pulse, overlapped sustain waveform with auxiliary pulse, are examined intensively. As a result, the overlapped sustain waveform with auxiliary pulse shows the best discharge characteristics under high Xe (20%) gas mixture at 200 kHz.
