“…Rauf and Kushner [58] show that the efficiency decreases with increasing He content; however, Lee et al [59,60] find it to decrease. For the improvement of the luminous efficiency from the structural point of view, several approaches have been tried so far [61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78]. The increase of the distance between the sustain electrodes (gap), the thickness of the dielectric that covers them or the decrease of their permittivity induces a better luminous efficiency [57,[79][80][81][82][83][84][85].…”

Plasma display panels (PDPs) are one of the leading technologies in the flat panels market. However, they are facing intense competition. Different fluid models, both one-dimensional (1D) and 2D, have been used to analyze the energy balance in PDP cells in order to find out how the xenon excitation part can be improved to optimize the luminous efficiency. The aim of this work is to present a 1D particle-in-cell with Monte Carlo collision (PIC–MCC) model for PDPs. The discharge takes place in a Xe10–Ne gas mixture at 560 Torr. The applied voltage is 381 V. We show at first that this model reproduces the electric characteristics of a single PDP discharge pulse. Then, we calculate the energy deposited by charged particles in each collision. The total energy is about 19 μJ cm−2, and the energy used in xenon excitation is of the order of 12.5% compared to the total energy deposited in the discharge. The effect of xenon content in a Xe–Ne mixture is also analyzed. The energies deposited in xenon excitation and ionization are more important when the xenon percentage has been increased from 1 to 30%. The applied voltage increases the energy deposited in xenon excitation.
