Abstract

It is shown that plasma display panel (PDP) cells are usually featuring a short glow discharge without positive column. An adequate description of this discharge must be consistently kinetic, taking into account the nonlocal effects for both fast and plasma electrons. Models combining elements of different precision, for example, local field approximation for fast electrons and various hydrodynamic (fluid) models for slow plasma electrons, cannot provide for a correct analysis of the discharge processes in PDPs.
