Abstract :
The development and application of electroluminescent (EL) powder phosphors in display technology are reviewed. The structure, preparation, and properties of EL devices are presented, and their application in display hardware is described. The future potential of large EL matrix displays is discussed. Although the uses of AC EL powder phosphor devices are at present confined to large-area fixed legend displays, the advent of better thin-film transistor (TFT) technology may well change the possible application areas. DC EL powder technology allows a display comprising 2000 characters, compatible with PC format
