Understanding Plasma Television


The definition of Plasma Television is a television which the picture processed from a gas (plasma) filled with xenon and neon atoms and millions of electrically charged atoms and electrons at specific intervals.

The display itself consists of cells, within each cell two glass panels are separated by a narrow gap in which neon-xenon gas is injected and sealed in plasma form. The charged gas release photons of light green, blue and red phosphors, thus creating a television image. Each group of red, green, and blue phosphors is called a pixel (picture element).

The life time for Plasma Televisions stated with lifespan rating. It is means that Plasma Television will lose approximately 50% of its brightness during its rated lifespan time. Today, Plasma Television has 60,000 to 100,000 hours lifespan. If such a 60,000 hours lifespan Plasma Television is on for 10 hours a day, its lifespan would be about 16 years.
