Abstract :
The spatial and temporal evolution of light emission image from the newly proposed high efficacy plasma display cell is presented. Unlike conventional plasma display which use surface discharge, the proposed cell structure utilizes facing discharge in a relatively long discharge gap. This structural variation results in remarkable changes in the emission profiles of the Xe (6p(1D2) to 6s(3P2)) and Ne (3p(3S1) to 3s(3P2)) excited states. This image can explain the reason why the new cell structure shows high luminous efficacy compared with that of conventional plasma display.
