A plasma display panel enhancing an emission efficiency of a green phosphor layer by increasing an excitation efficiency of a green phosphor layer using visible light emitted from a dielectric layer or barrier ribs, the plasma display panel including a first substrate and a second substrate disposed to face the first substrate. A plurality of display electrodes are formed on the first substrate. A first dielectric layer is formed on the first substrate to cover the display electrodes. A plurality of address electrodes are formed on the second substrate in a direction crossing the display electrodes. A second dielectric layer is formed on the second substrate to cover the address electrodes. Barrier ribs are disposed in a space between the first dielectric layer and the second dielectric layer to form a plurality of discharge cells. The second dielectric layer and the barrier ribs comprise a short wavelength phosphor material.
