The "34-inch full-color shadow mask plasma display
panel (PDP)" developed by China's Southeast University
has passed the test and appraisal of the office of new material
technology under the national "863" program. China's
signal great innovation and breakthrough in shadow mask plasma
display panel (PDP) technology will soon provide domestic
consumers with cheap but homemade plasma televisions of high
quality and of independent intellectual property rights.
The subject of "34-inch shadow mask PDP" is a project
of great significance in the field of new material technology
for the national "863" program. Headed by Wang Baoping,
electronic engineering professor with Southeast University
the group has scored great and creative achievements in theoretical
research, structural design optimization, manufacturing technique
and motor system etc.
The current plasma display panel (PDP) technology is incompetent
because of high cost, low luminous efficiency and limited
life expectancy. And a 34-inch plasma TV is sold at a high
price between 30, 000-50, 000 yuan and a 55 inch one even
around 300, 000 yuan just because it is complicated in the
manufacture and low rate in end product that led to a cost
so high as such.
Shadow mask plasma display panel (PDP), compatible with current
PDP manufacturing, boasts simple technique, high production
efficiency and rate of end product, high resolution, contrast
and luminous efficiency but low cost (about one third of the
current cost) which has greatly reduced the manufacturing
cost. It enjoys a very good prospect of industrialization
and will become an important technological means for China's
PDP industry to realize a leaping development.
The color plasma display panel (PDP) industrial base will
be set up in combination with the national high-definition
TV development plan to provide new development orientation
for making use of the huge cathode ray tube (CRT) production
line, said Professor Wang Baoping. It will not only save a
great amount of investment for the country but also create
technological base for China to win domestic and foreign markets
in an important field of display device, a considerable motive
force for China's basic industries such as material, machinery
and chemistry.
