Abstract

We proposed a new Mercury-free flat fluorescent lamp (MFFL) for LCD backlight which has the scanning ability to reduce the blurring edges of moving images. We expanded the single cell MFFL with 2.2 inch diagonal size into the multi-cell MFFL for the 32-inch LCD-TV backlight application, and examined its response characteristics and proposed a driving scheme for scanning.
