Abstract
A plasma display panel (PDP) is a type of flat panel display common to large TV displays (32" inches
or larger). Many tiny cells between two panels of glass hold a mixture of noble gases. The gas in the cells
is electrically turned into a plasma which then excites phosphors to emit light. One of major part in the
plasma display panel is its protecting layer. MgO thin film has been widely used as a protective layer for
dielectric materials. An addition material to MgO as base material is an alternative method for improving
its property as protective layer. A study of reducing the surface discharge potential of single pure MgO
protecting layer by the addition of ZrO2 with several compositions is presented. The discharge properties
approach taken is by utilizing the flashover treeing for material characterization, produced by a scanning
electron microscope (SEM). From the experiment, ZrO2 addition into high purity MgO has influenced the
property of MgO. Since secondary electron emission coefficient contributes in increasing the electric field
of the surface, it could be found that 5 wt% ZrO2 added MgO has highest secondary electron emission
coefficient because the charging and discharging process happened within a shorter time. Therefore
comparing with pure MgO, this new material could increase the efficiency of the energy consumption of a
plasma display up to 70%.
