Abstract

In an attempt to improve luminance efficiency of plasma display panel (PDP), its discharge cells were coated with photonic crystal (PC) layer. The powders used were monodispersed SiO₂, which were prepared through hydrolysis and condensation reactions of silicon alkoxides in the presence of ammonia. Polydispersity of the powder was less than 5%. A suspension of the powder was filled into the cells on rear plate of PDP and solvent was evaporated from the cells in a controlled manner to form a PC layer. Luminance efficiency of the cells with the layer was measured and compared with cells without the layer. The results indicated that application of PC layer significantly improved luminance efficiency of the PDP cells.
