| Abstract: | Abstract— A 25‐in. SMPDP with fine pitch and high resolution has recently been developed as a succession of the 34‐in. SMPDP, which had been exhibited at ASID '04. SMPDP was regarded as a hopeful low‐cost PDP solution. The new pitch size of 0.66 mm realized an SVGA resolution on this 25‐in. SMPDP, and it also promises HDTV‐resolution compatibility for a 42‐in. SMPDP. The discharge cell has been re‐designed and the delta‐type arrangement of discharge cells has been applied, which provides more display area and facilitates the panel fabrication as well. Other modifications, such as the bus‐electrode structure and the alternatives of the glass material for substrates, have been tested. A peak luminance of 500 cd/m2 and a total power consumption of 100 W has been achieved for the 25‐in. SMPDP sample. |
