Abstract

See full text

A light emitting tube array drivable in an ADS subfield mode wherein a fluorescent material layer is arranged on an inner wall of each light emitting tube sandwiched between a front substrate and a rear substrate, a discharge gas is airtightly put therein, and a plurality of electrodes formed for generating discharge in the light emitting tube are formed on the front substrate and the rear substrate has a problem that a discharge error is caused so that its cells wherein light emission should be caused do not emit light since the volume of its discharge spaces is extremely larger than that in plasma display panels or since the discharge spaces are partitioned by the light emitting tubes. The inventors have invented a method for driving a light emitting tube array, which has a structure as above described, drivable in an ADS subfield mode, wherein the electric potential of a first pulse in a sustain term and the width thereof, which corresponds to the applying time of the pulse, are appropriately set, thereby preventing the discharge error.
