Abstract

We suggest a new protective layer for PDP consists of SrO and MgO double layer. This double layer structure protects SrO layer from the contamination by $H_2O$ or $CO_2$ in the air and enable SrO to play as the main cathode material. It was confirmed that the high secondary electron emission characteristics of SrO by Xe ion can bring considerable driving voltage reduction and improvement of luminance and luminous efficacy in PDP.
