    Notes: Low luminous efficacy is one of the major drawbacks of plasma display panels (PDPs), where the main limiting factor is the efficiency of the microdischarges in generating UV radiation. In this work we use a two-dimensional self-consistent fluid model to analyze the energy loss mechanisms in neon–xenon discharges in coplanar-electrode color PDPs and interpret experimental data on the luminous efficacy of these PDPs. The modeling results are in good agreement with the measured UV emission spectrum and measured trends in the efficacy. Most of the electrical input energy is transferred to ions and subsequently to the gas and the surface. The electrical energy transferred to electrons is mostly used for ionization and excitation, where the part used for xenon excitation largely ends up in UV radiation. The amplitude, frequency, and rise time of the driving voltage mainly affect the energy losses due to ion heating. The xenon content also affects the conversion of electron energy into UV energy. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: In this work we present simple theoretical predictions as well as full Monte Carlo calculations of the energy distribution of the ion and fast neutral fluxes impinging on the materials that surround the microdischarges in plasma display panels and plasma addressed liquid crystal displays. We consider various rare gas ion species in different microdischarge designs. Often simple theoretical distribution functions are in good agreement with the results of Monte Carlo calculations. Under the influence of symmetric charge transfer collisions the ion energy distribution is essentially different from a Maxwellian distribution, and the ion motion is strongly orientated along the electric field. The flux of the fast neutrals formed by symmetric charge transfer is usually even larger than the ion flux itself. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: In fluid models of the gas discharges in plasma display panels, the trapping of resonance radiation is usually accounted for by a trapping factor. In this work, we present a Monte Carlo model for resonance photons, which gives a much more accurate description. First, we compare the results of this Monte Carlo model with the results of the fluid model trapping factor approach. Although the trapping factor approach does not yield the same spatial distribution for the density of the resonant state atoms, the spatially integrated density is in good agreement with the results of the Monte Carlo model. Next, we compare the results of the Monte Carlo model with measured spectra of emitted resonance radiation. The agreement is very good. Thus we provide, via the Monte Carlo model, experimental support for the widely used trapping factor approach. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Plasma addressed liquid crystal (PALC) is a promising technology for large size flat display devices, which uses gas discharges as electrical switches for the addressing of a liquid crystal (LC) layer. This work presents a comprehensive two-dimensional fluid model, that we developed for the simulation of the microdischarges occurring in PALC displays. The model comprises continuity equations and drift-diffusion equations for plasma particle species, a balance equation for the electron energy, and Poisson's equation for the electric field. Using this model, we succeeded in simulating the full PALC operation, reproducing a series of discharge pulses and afterglows in three consecutive PALC discharge channels. Results are presented for helium and helium–hydrogen mixtures. The results include: calculated particle densities, current–voltage curves, plasma decay times, surface charges, and LC transmission profiles. The influence of electrical crosstalk between adjacent channels is demonstrated.© 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Stationary plasma thrusters (SPTs) are advanced propulsion devices that use a gas discharge to ionize and accelerate the propellant. We present in detail a two-dimensional model of an SPT discharge. The model combines a particle simulation of neutral atoms and ions with a fluid description of electrons, where the electric field is obtained from imposing quasineutrality. The electron mobility and energy loss are treated in an empirical way and characterized by ad hoc parameters. Typical simulation results are shown. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.
