Optimization of three-component gas Ne-Xe-Kr for high efficiency plasma display panel

Summary form only given, as follows. A plasma display panel (PDP) has been spotlighted as one of the promising candidates for a flat panel display. The improvement of luminous efficiency is one of the most important issues in making a plasma display into a large flat panel device. The most fundamental element determining the discharge property is the discharging gas injected into the cell of the AC PDP. Therefore, we aimed to find the optimum gas composition for maximum electric discharge. A new composition of a three-component gas, Ne-Xe-Kr, is proposed in order to achieve a high luminous efficiency (maximum electric discharge) in color PDP.
