Abstract

The factors influencing the optimum selection of the excitation pulse width of thin-film electroluminescent devices is examined. It is shown that to excite an individual cell, a pulse width of 5–7 μsec is sufficient, but to excite the matrix, the pulse width is determined by the independence of the conducting layer and the dimensions of the matrix. Formulas are cited for engineering calculations of the required pulse width.
