Abstract:
A method for driving a matrix type of plasma display panel is capable of stably displaying an image in error-discharge free. The plasma display panel including a plurality of row electrodes extending parallel to each other, two adjacent ones of the row electrodes being paired, and a plurality of column electrodes extending perpendicularly to the row electrodes at a given intervals wherein a region in which, one pair of row electrodes and one column electrode are crossed and spaced with a distance to each other at an intersection corresponding to one pixel. The method includes the steps of: applying first resetting pulses to all of the row electrodes simultaneously to cause discharges between all of the pairs of row electrodes, each first resetting pulse including a pulse rise or pulse fall time longer than each duration of the sustain pulse for sustaining a discharge emission as a simultaneous resetting step; applying a second resetting pulse to one of the pair of row electrodes to cause discharge therebetween immediately after applying the first resetting pulse to the one of the pair of row electrodes; applying a scan pulse to every pair of row electrodes and simultaneously applying a pixel data pulse to every column electrode to write pixel data to the associated pixels in accordance with pixel data pulses applied; and applying a series of sustain pulses alternately to one of the row electrode pair and the other thereof to maintain sustain-discharge between the pair of row electrodes.
Abstract:
In order to reduce the address voltage in a gas discharge type display pane, the address electrodes in the display panel are formed on the barrier ribs. Further, a fluorescent layer is coated on the wall surface of the barrier ribs thereby suppressing erroneous light emission or degradation of the fluorescent layer during address discharge.

Abstract:
An AC plasma display panel includes first and second plates, a discharge space, a plurality of pairs of scan electrodes and common electrodes, and a plurality of data electrodes. The first and second plates are arranged opposite to each other through a predetermined gap, at least one of which is transparent. The discharge space is partitioned into a plurality of pixels. The pairs of scan electrodes and common electrodes are formed on the inner surface of the first plate in the row direction to allow emission sustaining surface discharge therebetween. The pixels are arranged at the intersections of the scan and common electrodes and the data electrodes. In this arrangement, the following relation is established 0.80.ltoreq.h/d.ltoreq.1.25 where d is the surface discharge gap between the scan and common electrodes, and h is the opposing discharge gap between the scan and common electrodes and the data electrodes.

A plasma display panel is provided which includes (a) a first substrate, (b) a second substrate, (c) a plurality of sets of electrode pairs extending in a direction A, (d) a partition wall structure formed overlapping the sets of electrode pairs, the partition wall structure including first partition walls extending in a direction B perpendicular to the direction A and second partition walls extending in parallel with the direction A, each of the first and second partition walls defining a cell therein, and (e) third partition walls extending in the direction B. The sets of electrode pairs, the partition wall structure and the third partition walls are arranged in this order between the first and second substrates. The first partition walls have a width W.sub.H greater than a width W.sub.D of the third partition walls. Advantageously, this construction of the plasma display panel permits the panel to exhibit improved luminance and contrast characteristics, and permits the display to constitute a high grade display.

A plasma display panel includes a plurality of sustaining electrodes provided between substrates and arranged in pairs, a plurality of address electrodes disposed perpendicular to the sustaining electrodes thereby forming a matrix and defining a plurality of pixels, each pixel being defined by a pair of sustaining electrodes and a pair of address electrodes; wherein the sustaining electrodes have a projection at each pixel; and the area of the projection varies from the central portion of the panel to the peripheral portion of the panel.
Abstract:
A plasma display device having a face plate and a rear plate spaced apart from each other. Parallel sustaining electrodes are arranged preferably on the face plate, while parallel address electrodes are arranged preferably on the rear plate, so that they are spaced apart from and extend perpendicularly to the sustaining electrodes. Barrier ribs are disposed to define discharge gas spaces adjacent to crossovers of the electrodes. At least some of the barrier ribs are transparent barrier ribs made of a light-permeable material, so that, particularly when the rear plate is covered with a reflective layering, light which might otherwise leak from the rear plate is usefully saved and caused to radiate through the face plate, whereby the use ratio of the emitted light increases.

A plasma display panel (PDP) of a planar discharger type which causes an auxiliary discharge and a display discharge in a single cell. The PDP includes anodes and cathodes formed in strips of different orientations and in different planes such that individual cells are formed which have a display anode, a display cathode, and an auxiliary anode.
Abstract:
An AC memory drive type self-shift type gas discharge panel which can prevent an accidental erroneous discharge caused by distributed abnormal charges. Abnormal charges may accumulate to a significant extent at the ends of the shift channels having write discharge cells and shift discharge cells regularly arranged. A path for leaking the abnormal charges is provided in the dielectric layer covering the electrode defining the discharge cells at the end of the shift channels.
Abstract:
A self shift type gas discharge panel has a display screen with a plurality of shift lines in the vertical direction, and a new driving system is provided for the panel. The display screen is divided horizontally into two areas, an upper part having display rows and a lower part having monitor rows, and these monitor and display rows are configured to allow independent shift operation. Thus, relevant data is written from underneath into the bottom monitor row by a one-data-input-and-refresh method, and when the writing into this monitor row is completed, the data in this single row is scrolled up into the display rows. The configuration makes it possible to write data into a desired position in the monitor rows and to amend easily the data already written, resulting in improved operability.
