Overview of Flexible Plasma Display Technology

There has been increasing interest inflexible displays and electronics. Flexibility is desirable because it promises low cost manufacture and offers new and emerging applications. A number of competing flexible display technologies are being developed including Electrophoretic, Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED), and flexible LCDs. Plasma displays have also entered the flexible display arena. ...

Striation phenomenon in the plasma display panel

A detailed analysis, based on kinetic and fluid simulations, of striation phenomenon in the plasma display panel cell has been presented. Numerical studies indicate that the phenomenon of striation occurs primarily due to the accumulation of space charge near the anode electrode. These space charges locally create multiple-layer potential distribution near the anode region. The ion density in t...

Getters and gettering in plasma display panels

In this article, starting from a calculation of the internal conductance inside AC and DC plasma display panels ~PDPs!, a simple theoretical model is used to estimate the pressure evolution inside a display during the exhausting process and the lifetime. All the values obtained are then compared to the results of specific measurements carried out on real PDPs. Based on these data, the role of a...
