Abstract:
A plasma display panel (PDP) includes: a front substrate; a rear substrate disposed in opposition to the front substrate; first barrier ribs disposed between the front substrate and the rear substrate, defining discharge cells with the front substrate and the rear substrate, and formed of a dielectric material; front discharge electrodes disposed inside the first barrier ribs so as to surround the discharge cells; rear discharge electrodes disposed inside the first barrier ribs so as to surround the discharge cells, and spaced apart from the front discharge electrodes; phosphor layers disposed in the discharge cells; and a discharge gas deposited in the discharge cells. With respect to a longitudinal sectional view of the first barrier ribs, a virtual horizontal axis which extends from a lowermost portion of each of the rear discharge electrodes and is parallel to the front substrate intersects a lateral surface of the first barrier ribs at a certain position. An angle between a tangent line at the intersection of the horizontal axis and a lateral surface of the first barrier ribs, on one hand, and a virtual vertical axis orthogonal to the horizontal axis, on the other hand, ranges from 4° to 17°.
Abstract:
A structure for connecting terminal parts of electrodes of a plasma display panel (PDP) includes a pair of substrates, barrier ribs arranged between the pair of substrates, a dielectric layer arranged between the pair of substrates, discharge electrodes, each having a discharge part arranged inside the barrier ribs, and an exposed part arranged at an end of the discharge part and outside the barrier ribs, terminal electrodes arranged on the dielectric layer, connection parts including conductive paste electrically connecting the exposed parts with the terminal electrodes, blocking partition walls arranged between the connection parts, and signal transmitting members electrically connected with the terminal electrodes.
Abstract:
A plasma display panel having an increased aperture ratio which improves luminous efficiency, and having increased discharge uniformity in a discharge space enhancing luminance, comprises: a front substrate and a rear substrate separated from each other; barrier ribs interposed between the front substrate and the rear substrate to partition discharge cells; discharge electrodes separated from each other and disposed between the front substrate and the rear substrate to generate a discharge; and fluorescent layers formed in the discharge cells. Two or more discharge spaces are formed in each of the discharge cells. Since two or more discharge cells are formed in one discharge cell, discharge uniformity is increased in a discharge space, thereby improving luminance.
Abstract:
A plasma display panel including: (a) front and back plates cooperating to define a gas-tight space therebetween; (b) data electrodes each disposed on an inside surface of the back plate and elongated in a first direction; (c) ribs each disposed between a corresponding adjacent pair of the data electrodes and elongated in the first direction; and (d) sustain electrodes each covered with a dielectric layer, disposed between the front plate and the ribs, and elongated in a second direction intersecting the first direction. The plasma display panel is operable to produce an image which is formed of a visible light that is generated in a selected light emission section by cooperation of (i) a discharge generated between the data and sustain electrodes, and (ii) a sustain discharge generated between mutually opposed surfaces of the sustain electrodes. Each rib has a height that is smaller than a certain value of an electrode gap distance which minimizes a discharge initiating voltage in Paschen curve representative of a relationship between the discharge initiating voltage and a product of the electrode gap distance and a pressure in the gas-tight space.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a plasma display panel. The plasma display panel includes an electrode structure in which an address electrode and a scan electrode generating an address discharge are aligned adjacent to each other such that an address voltage is constantly maintained at a relatively low level, thereby improving the light efficiency of the plasma display panel.
Abstract:
In a plasma display panel first and second substrates are located apart and substantially parallel to each other. A barrier rib layer is located between the first substrate and the second substrate. Discharge cells having various cross-sectional areas are formed within the barrier rib layer. Phosphor layers are formed within the discharge cells. Ring shaped first and second electrodes, conforming to the cross-sectional area of the discharge cells, surround the discharge cells adjacent to one or the other of the first and second substrates. The first electrodes are coupled together along a first direction and the second electrodes are coupled together along the same first direction. Address electrodes extend in a direction crossing the first direction and include protruding portions conforming to inner contours of the discharge cells.
