Abstract

A sustain discharge which is performed a specified number of times to obtain a predetermined luminance includes a first discharge mainly induced by externally-applied voltage and a second discharge mainly induced by wall charges, and an assistant pulse is applied in a direction to increase the second discharge. That allows an improvement in efficiency of an AC-PDP.
