Plasma discharge characteristics of MgO protection layer deposited by using targets made of single crystals, and nano powders

摘要

Improved properties of second electron emission was evaluated by assemble of 4 inch PDP panel. MgO protection layers were deposited and examined by using both pellets made of extremely pure MgO single crystals and sintered pellets using MgO nano powders. γ coefficients higher than 0.11 were obtained from the panel by adopting dopant-controlled MgO single crystals. Especially the MgO layer deposited by sintered pellets made of nano powders showed the higher γ coefficients at the operating voltage above 200 volts.
