Alternating current inorganic powder electroluminescence (EL) devices with a top-emission structure were fabricated on glass substrates to investigate the structural dependence on EL. The EL performance was examined by comparing the top-emission structure with the conventional EL device, i.e., the bottom-emission structure. High performance, such as 50 and 40% increases in efficiency and brightness, respectively, was achieved. This enhanced EL performance was attributed to the structural change in the EL device, leading to reduced optical loss and enhanced electric field applied to the phosphor.
