Abstract: The defect inspection is a crucial process for the plasma display panel (PDP) production that significantly influences the quality of final products. In this paper, we propose a defect identification and classification method that extracts and classifies defects using various image analysis techniques. First, we identify defects through binarization of images using Gaussian filter. Then, those defects are classified into seven different types by analyzing geometric characteristics of defects and utilizing a support vector machine (SVM) classifier. The experimental results using separate sets of training and test PDP images obtained from production lines are quite promising. Our method identifies defects effectively enough to be used in the real environment. It also achieves a high correctness in classifying various types of defects.

Abstract: In this paper, we present Plasma Display Panel (PDP) cell discharge using a 1D Particle in Cell with Monte Carlo Collisions model. The effect of gas pressure on the PDP characteristics including current density, voltage margins and energy balance is then studied in order to show the optimized conditions to obtain more energy dissipated in xenon excitation. The results show, at first, the spatiotemporal variation of the electric field and charges densities. It is also seen that for more important gas pressure, there is an increase of the current density, voltage margins and the energy deposited into xenon excitation and ionization.

Abstract: Bi-based glass pastes were prepared in the mixed organic solvents (α-terpineol and texanol) with different kinds and concentrations of organic dispersant such as fish oil , phosphate ester and poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA). The rheological stability of glass pastes was characterized by using a rheometer and adsorption behavior of organic additives for the glass powders was carried out by using a thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA).The Bi-based glass pastes exhibited the most stable rheological behavior at an addition of phosphate ester of 0.5 in mass %, due to the steric repulsive force acting on the surface of glass powers with adsorbing the organic additives. This study allowed significant delay of the sedimentation time and suppressed generation of micropores during practical forming process by a screen printing method.

Abstract: Characteristics of MgO layer deposited under hydrogen atmosphere were investigated. Hydrogen gas was introduced during e-beam evaporation coating process of MgO layer and its effects on microstructure, cathode luminescence spectra, discharge voltages and effective yield of secondary electron emission were examined. The results indicated that the hydrogen influences the concentration and energy levels of defects in MgO layer and that affects the luminance efficiency and discharge delays of the panels significantly.
