The relationship between density of MgO thin films and panel properties in AC-PDP

Abstract

The MgO thin films for AC-PDPs are deposited by c-beam evaporation with varied oxygen flow rate and e-beam current. The panel properties such as luminance, response time, dynamic margin, color temperature and CIE coordinate are characterized as a function of time with the aging environment. The result reveals that a plasma display panel with MgO thin film of lower 02 flow rate would provide better panel properties due to higher density of MgO thin film and higher cystallinity companied with higher surface roughness.
