Recent Progress on Image Quality and Performance through Plasma Display Development

Abstract

Launching of the first 42-inch TV sets, featuring Plasma Display Panel (PDP) by Japanese manufacturers in late 1990s, has set off the age of Flat Panel Display (FPD) as we are experiencing today. As a result of constant reduction in cost and strenuous efforts to realize larger sizes, plasma display and LCD have become dominant devices in the market.
This paper reviews recent progress in image quality and improvement of overall performance through the development of plasma display. New approaches inspired by the development of devices in order to evaluate image quality of displays as close as possible to human perception, are also covered.
