High Xe-content PDP characteristics are discussed. A high efficacy, up to 5 lm/W for a 50% Xe in Ne gas mixture, is realized in 4-inch color PDP test panel designs with low cost stripe-type barrier rib structures, that are powder blasted in soda lime glass. Furthermore, for a high Xe-content a high luminance can be obtained with a relatively small electrode area. Therefore the inter cell gap and the driving margin can be increased in a stripe-type barrier rib structure. Finally, for a high Xe-content the panel lifetime increases, due to increasing luminance and firing voltage stability. Clearly, these findings may direct the design development for next generation PDPs towards a high Xe-content

The discharge characteristics of He-Ne-Xe gas mixture with the variation of Xe content are investigated through the numerical simulation. VUV efficacy in the gas condition of low Xe content increases due to more excitation and the case of high Xe content shows the improvement of VUV efficacy with the increase of He content but decreased VUV efficacy after tthe He mixing ratio of He and Ne is 0.5 due to frequent ionization.

Recently, in order to improve the characteristics of operating voltage, brightness, discharge time lag, luminous efficacy of ac PDP, the PDP with high Xe partial pressure has been investigated. However, the serious problems in this case is to increase the operating voltage of ac PDP. In this study, in order to meet this problem the influences of kr gas in Ne-Xe-Kr ternary gas system is investigated for wide range of Xe partial pressure in terms of operating voltage, driving margin, luminance and luminous efficacy.

The use of high Xe content gas is a powerful method for improving the discharge efficacy in PDP, but the accompanying high driving voltage prevents it from being used aggressively. In this paper, we tried to find a method to lower the driving voltage under high Xe gas condition with a new protecting layer. The effective secondary electron emission caused by Xe ions can result in the low voltage driving in panels with high Xe content gas and more importantly high luminous efficacy which were confirmed with the computer simulation and panel experiment.

Nowadays, many research groups try to achieve the high Xe mole fraction discharge gas for high efficiency in AC-PDPs. However, the high Xe mole fraction discharge gas causes the high discharge voltage, which is a serious problem in AC-PDP's for high efficiency. In this study, the discharge gas with high Xe mole fraction and the low pressures has been applied and it's discharge voltage and vacuum ultraviolet emission characteristics have also been measured. It is shown that the discharge voltage is 354V and 389V at Ne+Xe (15%) with 400 Torr and Ne+Xe (30%) with 200 Torr, respectively. Their vacuum ultraviolet emission characteristics have similar characteristics to each other, in which their wavelengths are ranged from 140 nm to 200 nm. It is found in this experiment that the luminous efficiency for the discharge gas of Ne+Xe (30%) with 200 Torr is drastically increased by about 30%.

We investigated the effect of sustain electrode gap variation with high Xe content in an ac Plasma Display Panel through two-dimensional numerical simulation to understand the inherent high luminous efficiency mechanism. For the low Xe content, the optimal sustain electrode gap turned out to be about 200 ${\mu}m$, but with higher Xe content, the VUV generation efficiency increased as the electrode gap increases beyond 200 ${\mu}m$. We found that it is due to higher electron heating efficiency in the cathode sheath under the condition of long electrode gap and high Xe content.

In this paper, we suggest a new front panel structure with ridged front panel dielectric layer and hollow gap. The proposed structure can decrease a driving voltage and increase Xe content due to strong electric fields. In the experiment, we have used 6" test panel with 10 %, 15 %, 20 %, 30 % and 50 % Xe contents and 450 torr gas pressure. When comparing with a conventional structure in Xe 10 %, the proposed structure with same Xe content decreased a firing and sustain voltage by about 74 V and 79 V, also the luminance and luminous efficacy of proposed structure with 50 % Xe content were improved by about 33 % and 50.9 %..9 %.

The improvement of luminance and luminous efficiency is the one of the most important part in AC-PDPs. To achieve high luminance and luminous efficiency, high VUV emission efficiency is needed. We measured the emission spectra of vacuum ultraviolet(VUV) rays in surface discharge AC-PDP with binary and ternary gas mixtures of Ne-Xe and He-Ne-Xe. The influence of He-Ne-Xe gas-mixture ratio on excited $Xe^{\ast}$ resonant atoms and $Xe_2$$^{\ast}$ dimers has been investigated. It is found that luminous efficiency of ternary gas mixture, He-Ne-Xe, is shown to be much higher than that of binary gas mixture of Ne-Xe.

Recently color AC PDP(plasma display panel) technology is rapidly improved. However, the luminous efficiency improvement is a key issue for making plasma display into a large-area flat display. In this paper, we suggest a new concentration of Xe in He-Ne-Xe gas mixture in order to achieve a high luminous efficiency of color AC PDPs. We calculated the densities of 25 species as a function of the time zero dimensional simulation using CVODE solver and we compared the results of zero dimensional simulation with a measurement of photo wave brightness and luminous efficiency, in order to find the optimum mixing condition of He-Ne-Xe gas in color plasma display panel. We obtained a high discharge speed under Xe mixing ratio of 1% by simulation and confirmed that through measuring photo wave.

Various approaches were undertaken by major PDP makers in order to improve the luminous efficacy of the plasma discharge cells. There have been many reports that state that using a high Xe content PDP is one of the most promising key technologies available to improve the luminous efficacy. In the case of the higher Xe content panel, the higher address and sustain voltage were needed to drive the panel under the same reset condition. In this study, a variety of Xe content panels were investigated in order to examine wall voltage transfer behaviors. The transferred wall voltage status after addressing discharge at the same driving condition was analyzed by comparing Vt close curve of high and low Xe content panels. Through this analysis of Vt close curve difference, the driving waveform of a high Xe panel was quantitatively adjusted Under the same address voltage condition, results showed that the amount of the transferred wall voltage and Vt close curve after addressing discharge was matched for the first sustain discharge. Taking these results into consideration, we conclude that the driving waveform for different Xe content panels could be designed for the desired addressing discharge condition and the wall voltage state of the cell could be quantitatively controlled and measured through these approaches.
