Abstract:
When a current frame of a video expresses only grayscales less than a reference grayscale, a sustain pulse applying period and a holding period are alternately provided in a sustain period of at least one subfield having a weight greater than a reference weight in all of the discharge cells of a plasma display panel, thereby reducing power consumption in the plasma display panel. In the sustain pulse applying period, sustain pulses alternately having a first voltage and a second voltage less than the first voltage are applied in opposite phases to first electrodes and second electrodes of the plasma display panel. In the holding period, the first electrodes and/or the second electrodes are maintained at the first voltage.

A plasma display panel includes a first substrate and second substrate opposing each other, address electrodes arranged on the first substrate along a first direction, barrier ribs arranged between the first substrate and the second substrate to define a plurality of discharge cells, and display electrodes arranged on the second substrate along the second direction intersecting the first direction. The barrier ribs include dummy barrier ribs arranged in a non-display region provided in the first substrate and the second substrate, the dummy barrier ribs satisfying the following formula: 2.4≦(h/l)×100≦6.0 where l is a length of a dummy barrier rib measured in the first direction, and h is a height of a barrier rib measured in a thickness direction of the panel.
Abstract:
A plasma display device prevents interconnect wiring from breaking due to thermal deformation, and is thus suitable for high definition. The plasma display device includes a chassis base, a plasma display panel disposed in front of the chassis base to display an image, a circuit board disposed in back of the chassis base for driving the plasma display panel, and interconnect wiring connecting the circuit board to the plasma display panel. The plasma display device has a structure in which a ratio of a distance between an end of the circuit board and a curve apex of the interconnect wiring to a distance between a front end and a back end of the interconnect wiring is at least 0.25. As a result, the interconnect wiring is prevented from breaking due to thermal expansion of the plasma display panel and the chassis base.

Abstract:
A plasma display panel capable of preventing faulty discharge and non-uniform discharge by applying a uniform address voltage to all subpixels. This is done by neutralizing the negative surface potential of a zinc silicate green fluorescent material using YBO3:Tb as a positive surface potential material on the partition walls between the electrodes. Also, the thickness of this YBO3:Tb material and a lateral spacing between a scan electrode and the positive surface potential material are carefully selected to arrive at a design resulting in no faulty pixels. Grooves can also be formed in the tops of the partition walls so that the positive surface potential material filled therein does not mix with the neighboring flourescent material.
