Plasma display panels: physics, recent developments and key issues
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we describe the principles of operation of a plasma display panel (PDP) and the physical mechanisms controlling the performances of a PDP in terms of light emission efficiency, lifetime and image quality. Emphasis is put on the physics of the plasma occurring in a PDP cell, on the discharge optimization, and on the analysis of recent results provided by experimental and numerical diagnostic tools. We focus on alternative current PDPs, where the plasma is generated by a dielectric barrier discharge, the configuration adopted by most PDP companies. The recent improvements and the remaining research issues are discussed.

متن کاملTopical Issues for Particle Acceleration Mechanisms in Astrophysical Shocks
Particle acceleration at plasma shocks appears to be ubiquitous in the universe, spanning systems in the heliosphere, supernova remnants, and relativistic jets in distant active galaxies and gamma-ray bursts. This review addresses some of the key issues for shock acceleration theory that require resolution in order to propel our understanding of particle energization in astrophysical environmen...
متن کاملBrowse searchable encryption schemes: Classification, methods and recent developments
With the advent of cloud computing, data owners tend to submit their data to cloud servers and allow users to access data when needed. However, outsourcing sensitive data will lead to privacy issues. Encrypting data before outsourcing solves privacy issues, but in this case, we will lose the ability to search the data. Searchable encryption (SE) schemes have been proposed to achieve this featur...
