Abstract:
In a three-electrode AC plasma display panel, a plurality of X electrodes (22) and a plurality of Y electrodes (23) are alternately arranged parallel to each other on one of two, front and rear insulating substrates (20, 21) opposing each other, and a plurality of data electrodes (29) are arranged on the other insulating substrate to cross the X and Y electrodes (22, 23) at right angles. In this panel, cell separation partition walls (33) are arranged on the front insulating substrate, on which the X and Y electrodes (22, 23) are arranged, along the X and Y electrodes (22, 23). In a driving method for the three-electrode AC plasma display panel, progressive display is performed depending on whether discharge simultaneously occurs between all the adjacent pairs of X and Y electrodes (22, 23).

At least two discharge cells among a plurality of discharge cells included in respective pixels correspond to and are driven by a same address electrode.
Abstract:
A Plasma Display Panel (PDP) is driven with a long discharge gap between display electrodes to generate a positive column. The PDP includes first and second substrates disposed opposite to each other, barrier ribs partitioning discharge cells, address electrodes positioned on the first substrate, and display electrodes extending in a second direction and crossing with the address electrodes in regions corresponding to the discharge cells. A long distance gap between display electrodes in a discharge cell is greater than a distance between a display electrode and the address electrode, and discharge is initiated between the address electrode and the first display electrode. Discharge diffuses along the address electrode until main discharge is generated in the long discharge gap between display electrodes to increase panel efficiency. Furthermore, the address electrodes are curved and have a path longer than a discharge cell length to increase a high intensity brightness region.
