Abstract:
A plasma display panel comprising plural kinds of phosphors, each of which emits a light having a different kind of color, separators which separate the plural kinds of phosphors, and discharge cells having sustain electrode pairs which create discharges producing the light emissions from the phosphors. In the plasma display panel, sustain discharge currents through the sustain electrode pairs in the discharge cells are set at different values according to respective brightness of the lights emitted from the plural kinds of phosphors.
Abstract:
A plasma display panel includes a first substrate, and a second substrate facing the first substrate. The first substrate includes a transparent substrate, a scanning electrode and a common electrode both formed on the transparent substrate, and a dielectric layer covering the transparent substrate, the scanning electrode and the common electrode therewith. The second substrate includes an electrically insulating substrate, data electrodes formed on the electrically insulating substrate, partition walls formed on the electrically insulating substrate, and a phosphor layer covering the electrically insulating substrate and the data electrodes therewith between adjacent partition walls. The phosphor layer includes a blue-phosphor layer composed of phosphor which emits a blue light. The blue-phosphor layer is composed of a mixture of two or more phosphors each of which emits a blue light and has an initial brightness and variation of brightness with the lapse of time both different from one another.
Abstract:
Phosphor and a plasma display device are provided whose deterioration in brightness of phosphors and a degree of change in chromaticity are alleviated and whose discharge characteristics are improved and that has excellent initial characteristics. Phosphor of the present invention is an alkaline-earth metal aluminate phosphor containing an element M (where M denotes at least one type of element selected from the group consisting of Nb, Ta, W and B). In this phosphor, a concentration of M in the vicinity of a surface of the phosphor particles is higher than the average concentration of M in the phosphor particles as a whole. A plasma display device according to the present invention includes a plasma display panel in which a plurality of discharge cells in one color or in a plurality of colors are arranged and phosphor layers are arranged so as to correspond to the discharge cells in colors and in which light is emitted by exciting the phosphor layers with ultraviolet rays. The phosphor layers include blue phosphor, where the afore-mentioned phosphor is used as the blue phosphor.

Abstract:
A method of forming a phosphor layer of a gas discharge tube provided with the phosphor layer on an internal surface of an elongated tubular vessel forming a discharge space. The method includes the steps of introducing a slurry of phosphor powder and a binding resin dispersed in a medium into the tubular vessel, holding the tubular vessel sideways to deposit the phosphor powder and the binding resin in the tubular vessel, and removing the medium from the tubular vessel, thereby forming a phosphor layer on one side of the internal surface of the tubular vessel.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a highly crystallized phosphor powder, comprising: making a raw material solution containing metal elements and/or semimetal elements that will be constituents of the phosphor into fine liquid droplets, subjecting the liquid droplets to decomposition by heating at a temperature of 500 to 1800° C. to produce hollow precursor particles and/or porous precursor particles, heating the precursor particles to crystallize the precursor particles while maintaining the hollow or porous form, and grinding the crystallized particles down to a predetermined particle size. The obtained phosphor powder is a high luminance inorganic phosphor powder that is extremely fine, and yet has few defects on the surface of or inside the powder, and hence has excellent crystallinity and light emission characteristics, and provides a phosphor composition useful for producing a phosphor layer with high coverage and high luminance of light emission.

Abstract:
A plasma display panel. A first substrate and a second substrate are provided opposing one another with a predetermined gap therebetween. Address electrodes are formed on the second substrate. Barrier ribs are mounted between the first substrate and the second substrate, the barrier ribs defining a plurality of discharge cells and a plurality of non-discharge regions. Phosphor layers are formed within each of the discharge cells. Discharge sustain electrodes are formed on the first substrate. The non-discharge regions are formed in areas encompassed by discharge cell abscissas that pass through centers of adjacent discharge cells and discharge cell ordinates that pass through centers of adjacent discharge cells, the non-discharge regions having a width that is at least as large as a width of an end of barrier ribs. Also, a transverse barrier rib is formed extending between each pair of adjacent rows of discharge cells.
