Abstract:
A plasma display panel includes a substrate, a dielectric layer formed on a top surface of the substrate, and partitions spaced a predetermined distance apart from each other and having a snaking or meandering shape. The partitions form channels having main discharge spaces and auxiliary discharge spaces alternately arranged and connected to each other. Red (R), green (G) and blue (B) phosphors are coated on the main discharge spaces in a triangular shape and where G and R phosphors are aligned with each other in a horizontal direction. The thicknesses of partitions forming the main discharge spaces where the R and G phosphors are coated are greater than thicknesses of the partitions forming the main discharge spaces where the B phosphor is coated.

The plasma display is constructed with: a plasma display panel that displays visual images by using gas discharge; a chassis base that supports the plasma display panel; a driving board that applies a driving voltage to the plasma display panel; a connection wire connecting the driving board to an electrode included in the plasma display panel, and in which an electronic element is packaged; and a first member that adheres to the connection wire to absorb heat transmitted to the electronic element.
Abstract:
A plasma display panel includes a first substrate, on which discharge sustain electrodes are formed, and an opposing second substrate, on which address electrodes are aligned in a first direction. Barrier ribs between the substrates define a plurality of discharge cells within which phosphor layers are formed. The display electrodes have bus electrodes, forming a corresponding pair within each of the discharge cells, and extension electrodes, extending from the bus electrodes into each of the discharge cells to form an opposing pair. A pair of the display electrodes corresponding to each of the discharge cells forms a first gap and a second gap having different distances from each other between the opposing extension electrodes, and forms a third gap between the bus electrodes. The second gap is longer than the first gap, and the third gap is longer than the second gap.
Abstract:
A method of driving a plasma display panel (PDP) and an apparatus for carrying out the method. The PDP includes address electrodes with first electrodes and second electrodes intersecting the address electrodes. Gray-scale levels being represented by combinations of sub-fields, each sub-field having a reset period, an address period, and a sustain-discharge period. The different gray scales are achieved not only by modifying the voltage waveforms in the sustain-discharge period but also by modifying the voltage waveforms in the reset period, allowing for better control over gray scales and better contrast. Different sub-fields can have different voltages applied during the reset period which affects the luminance of the image displayed. A circuit for making the above voltage waveforms is also presented.
