A new structure including igniter electrode is proposed to achieve a low sustaining voltage and high luminous efficacy. By measuring minimum sustaining voltage(Vsm), discharge current(Ion), displacement current(Ioff) and brightness of the light from a 6‐inch AC PDP, performances of the conventional structure and the igniter structure are compared. When compared with the conventional structure, the igniter structure showed 10% Vsm improvement at the Ne‐Xe(10%) gas mixture of 600 mbar. Therefore, we could apply the higher partial pressure of Ne‐Xe(12%) to the igniter structure, which results in 42% luminous efficacy improvement at the similar sustaining voltage range.
