Spatiotemporal behavior of excited Xe atom density in the 1s5 metastable state according to the Xe mole fractions in He-Ne-Xe ternary gas mixtures at alternating current plasma display panel(AC-PDP)

Summary form only given. We have measured the excited Xe atom density in the ls₅ metastable state in accordance with Xe mole fraction to He and Ne in alternating current plasma display panels by laser absorption spectroscopy. The various test panels with Xe mole fractions of 4, 7, 10 and 15 % to He-Ne have been used in this experiment. The 4 inch test panels with discharge cell of T-typed indium-tin-oxide electrode with closed barrier rib have been used and driven by the same driving conditions in this experiment. It is noted that the correlation between the excited Xe atom density in the ls₅ metastable state and the VUV luminous efficiency is in good agreement at xenon mole fraction from 1% to 15% with each other.
