[摘要]:Plasma display panel (PDP) with MgO-SrO double cathode layer and SiO2 diffusion barrier is proposed to make the SrO layer free of contaminations. Time of flight-secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) analysis shows the diffusion of impurities, like Na and K, can be effectively blocked while a new SrO layer is formed on top of the MgO layer. This structure shows that high Xe gases can be used to improve the luminous efficacy 2.3 times and decrease the voltage margin more than 10 V compared to the conventional PDP using Ne-Xe 15%. The aging time was also significantly decreased to 3-4 h. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3655329]
