Abstract
A new color-enhancing discharge mode using a self-erasing discharge is proposed based on an analysis of the Ne emission mechanism in a Ne - Xe gas mixture. The effects of the new color-enhancing discharge mode produced by a ramped-square sustain waveform on improving the color reproducibility are examined in an alternate current plasma display panel (ac-PDP) filled with a Ne - Xe gas mixture. When the ramped-square sustain pulses are applied at 150 kHz, the color purities of the blue and green visible emissions are both improved, thereby expanding the color gamut area by about 5.4% without reducing the luminance.
