Reconstruction and exaggerated grain growth (EGG) behaviors of redeposited MgO layer were observed and analyzed theoretically with the addition of dopant and MgO seed particle. The reconstruction and EGG are closely correlated with the driving force for nucleation and growth, interface energy and initial size distribution of MgO protective layer and this is believed to be caused by the formation of charged clusters in the plasma spaces during discharge in AC-PDPs.

AC plasma display panel of high luminous efficacy and low power consumption was newly developed for energy regulation of TVs. New technologies for panel structure, discharge gas mixture, protective layer, material, process and driving were applied to a panel in order to increase luminous efficacy and reduce power consumption. Also, the reliability of the panel was improved by the reconstruction behavior and exaggerated grain growth (EGG) using the distribution of new functional layer and discharge control. The influences of design parameters on the luminous efficacy and reliability were investigated and discussed.
