Patent number: 8317563Abstract: Provided is a manufacturing method that allows even a PDP having high-definition cells to exhibit excellent image display performance with reduced power consumption by effectively preventing impurities from adhering to the protective layer. Specifically, in a pre-baking step, a back substrate 9 is baked at a pre-baking temperature. Here, a highest pre-baking temperature is set to be lower than a softening point of a sealing material. The back substrate 9 is superposed on a front substrate 2. Then, a sealing step is performed in a sealing atmosphere prepared by mixing a predetermined amount of a reducing gas with a non-oxidizing gas. The above enables the impurities attributed to organic components due to a sealing material paste to remain as low molecular components, whereby the impurities are evacuated and removed in an evacuating step performed after the sealing step. This prevents adherence of the impurities to the protective layer 8.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2010Date of Patent: November 27, 2012Assignee: Panasonic CorporationInventors: Yasuhiro Yamauchi, Masahiro Sakai, Yusuke Fukui, Keisuke Okada

Patent number: 8298362Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a manufacturing method for a PDP which allows even high-definition and ultra-high-definition PDPs to demonstrate an excellent image display capability at improved luminous efficiency, by suppressing variation of a discharge gas composition, and by eliminating an impurity gas in a discharge space effectively. To achieve the aim, deterioration of an absorbent material 39 composed of copper ion-exchanged ZSM-5-type zeolite is prevented, by performing both sealing and evacuation steps for the front substrate 2 and back substrate 9 in a non-oxidizing gas atmosphere. This maintains properties of the absorbent material 39 for absorbing the impurity gas without degradation, even if the absorbent material 39 absorbs a Xe gas in a discharge gas introducing step.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2010Date of Patent: October 30, 2012Assignee: Panasonic CorporationInventors: Masahiro Sakai, Keisuke Okada, Yayoi Okui

Publication number: 20110089827Abstract: The present invention provides a PDP especially having a high definition or super high definition cell structure and realizing excellent image display performance by obtaining light-emitting efficiency as favorable as or more favorable than conventional PDPs while suppressing discharge voltage rise. Therefore, strip-shaped display electrodes 4 and 5 of a PDP 1 are respectively composed of a combination of a transparent electrode 41 and a bus electrode 42 and a combination of a transparent electrode 51 and a bus electrode 52. An electrode gap d between electrodes 41 and 51 falls in a range of 5 ?m to 60 ?m. A ratio of a total surface area of the electrodes 41 and 51 to a total surface area of discharge cells falls in a range of 0.6 to 0.92. Thus, a discharge start length is larger than the electrode gap d. A product of a total pressure P of a discharge gas and the electrode gap d falls in a range of 13.33 Pa·cm to 133.3 Pa·cm. The discharge gas consists of xenon of 100%.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 15, 2009Publication date: April 21, 2011Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: Hiroto Yanagawa, Hiroyuki Yamakita, Kiyoshi Hishimotodani, Keisuke Okada

Publication number: 20070292634Abstract: A plasma display panel (PDP) and a method of manufacturing the same suppresses variation in the height of the intersecting barrier walls with a simple method and that prevents cross talk from occurring between the discharge cells. A concave part is formed at a position contacting an intersecting part of a first barrier wall before baking and a second barrier wall before baking orthogonal to the first barrier wall before baking. When such concave part is formed, the values of the surface area per volume of the intersecting part and the surface area per volume of the first barrier wall before baking and the second barrier wall before baking between the intersecting part and the intersecting part adjacent to the intersecting part become substantially equal. As a result, the height of the intersecting part does not become high after baking, a barrier wall of aligned height is obtained, and cross talk does not occur between the discharge cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 14, 2007Publication date: December 20, 2007Applicant: MATSUSHITA ELECTRIC INDUSTRIAL CO., LTD.Inventors: Takayuki ABE, Yoshiyasu HONMA, Tomohiro OKUMURA, Keisuke OKADA, Kazuto FUKUDA

Patent number: 5379410Abstract: A data generating apparatus for sequentially generating data includes a binary counter, a setting circuit, a match detecting circuit, and a selector group. The binary counter responds to a clock signal for sequentially generating data. The setting circuit sets a data preceding the data to be skipped. The match detecting circuit detects a match of the data set by the setting circuit with the data generated by the binary counter. The selector group supplies "1" to the binary counter when a match is not detected by the match detecting circuit, and "2" to the binary counter when a match is detected by the match detecting circuit. The binary counter adds "2" to the preceding data when a match is detected by the match detecting circuit to skip the desired data.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 1991Date of Patent: January 3, 1995Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Keisuke Okada

Patent number: 5377142Abstract: A DRAM having a data preset function is disclosed. A memory cell includes connectors which are formed of contact holes or through holes and which can be selectively formed in order to program preset data. For example, when preset data "0" is programmed, connectors are formed, and connector 17 is not formed. When a data precharge signal of a high level is applied, a transistor is turned on and as a result, a data storage capacitor is discharged. In other words, predetermined data is written into capacitor. Thus, the DRAM having the data preset function is provided.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 1993Date of Patent: December 27, 1994Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Tetsuya Matsumura, Masahiko Yoshimoto, Keisuke Okada
