Benefits of technology

The present invention is an image display device that uses a glass substrate with low reflectance at a specific wavelength. This prevents the glass substrate from yellowing and improves the image display quality. The evaluating method of the glass substrate involves analyzing the content of a specific element in the glass substrate. This allows for easy selection of a glass substrate that does not yellow and provides an optimal glass substrate for the image display device.

Problems solved by technology

When an Ag electrode made of silver material is formed on a float glass substrate manufactured by the float method, however, a colored layer is disadvantageously formed on the surface of the glass substrate and the glass substrate changes into yellow (yellows).
When the glass substrate, especially the front-side glass substrate, yellows, the yellowing is fatal in the image display device.
Due to the yellowing of the glass substrate, the panel looks yellow, the commercial value decreases, display brightness of blue decreases to change display chromaticity, and, color temperature decreases to degrade picture quality especially in displaying white.
These problems occur not only in a PDP but also in a general image display device having a structure where an Ag electrode is formed on a glass substrate.

Abstract

The present invention provides an image display device capable of displaying a good image by suppressing yellowing of a glass substrate, and an evaluating method of the glass substrate. The image display device is formed using the glass substrate where reflectance at wavelength of 220 nm is 5% or lower. In the evaluating method of the glass substrate for the image display device, Sn++ content in the glass substrate is analyzed using reflectance at wavelength of 220 nm.
