Glossary
Space charge :
Mutual repulsion caused by accumulation of electric charge of similar signal.
Stripe rib :
Stripe shaped partition structure. It follows panel column direction.
Sub frame :
(Refer to sub field)
Sub field :
A part of panel
Surface charge :
It refers to the location of discharge in AS plasma panel where sustained electrodes are on the same surface.
Surface charge PDP :
AS plasma panel where sustained electrodes are on the same surface.
Sustain :
Discharge in AC plasma panel that keeps on or off until the cell is erased or written. Sustained electrodes
are divided into bus (common electrodes) and addressable electrodes.
Sustain driver :
Circuit that drives sustained electrodes.
Sustain electrode :
Electrodes driven by AC voltage that provides plasma with energy major parts. This electrode is driven by
enough waveform to keep discharge of turned on state. In turned off cell, trigger discharge does not takes
place.
Sustain magin :
The disparity between sustained voltage that keeps turned on cells and sustained voltage that can turn off
cells.
Sustain pulse :
Sustained drive waveform[symbol : Ps]
Sustain vlotage :
Voltage level of sustained waveform
Thermal compaction :
Substrates successive density increase observed by substrates pattern contraction.
Thermal radiation :
Radiation in infrared rays over 800nm.
Three electrode type :
Modern AC panel has three electrodes for each cell and a pair of thermal electrodes provide cells with AC
power. Data electrodes in opposite substrates provide unique writing and erasing signals to each cell
Time modulation driving method (Other terms: time division multiplex method) :
Modulation method in proportion to certain time applied to stimulation with regular output. Output
strength is changed according to input time.
