Abstract

This paper presents a new method for the improvement of color temperature without the change of the driving scheme using transparent dielectric layers with various metal oxides (CeO$_2$, Co$_3$O$_4$, CuO, Fe$_2$O$_3$, MnO$_2$, NiO) in plasma display panels (PDP). In this study, we fabricated ZnO-B$_2$O$_3$-SiO$_2$-Al$_2$O$_3$ glasse with various metal oxides and examined the optical properties of these glasses. As the metal oxides were added to the glasses, the visible transmittances of the dielectric layers decreased and the transmittances in special wavelength regions were reduced at different rates. The change of the transmittance in each wavelength range induced the variation of the visible emission spectra and the change of the color temperature in the PDP. The addition of Co$_3$O$_4$ and CuO slightly decreased the intensity of the blue light, but the intensities of the green and the red light were significantly decreased. Therefore, the color temperature can be improved from 6087K to 7378K and 7057K, respectively.
