Abstract

The influences of silicon and MgO seed particle on the reconstruction characteristics of MgO protective layer were investigated to clarify the mechanism of reconstruction and exaggerated grain growth (EGG) in AC-PDP. The reconstruction and EGG are closely correlated with the driving force for nucleation and growth, interface energy and initial size distribution of MgO protective layer in plasma space during discharge in AC-PDP.
