Abstract:
A plasma display panel can stabilize address properties. A front substrate (1) and a back substrate (2) are disposed to face each other, and a discharge space (3) is formed and partitioned by barrier ribs (11) so as to form priming discharge cells (16) and main discharge cells (12). Forming priming electrodes (15) onto a dielectric layer (17) in the priming discharge cells (16) can secure the isolation voltage between data electrodes (10) and the priming electrodes (15), and can also secure the generation of a priming discharge prior to a main discharge.

Abstract:
A plasma display panel includes a first substrate and a second substrate, the first substrate and the second substrate being provided with a predetermined gap therebetween. Barrier ribs are formed in a non-striped pattern between the first substrate and the second substrate, the barrier ribs defining a plurality of discharge spaces. A plurality of address electrodes are formed on the first substrate along a direction (y), the address electrodes being formed within and outside discharge spaces. A plurality of sustain electrodes are formed on the second substrate along a direction (x), the sustain electrodes being formed within and outside discharge spaces. The address electrodes include large electrode portions provided within discharge spaces and small electrode portions provided outside the discharge spaces. If a width of large electrode portions is AW, a width of small electrode portions is Aw, and a distance between barrier ribs along direction (x) is D, AW is larger than Aw, and AW is 40-75% of D.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a plasma display panel comprising transparent electrodes and a dielectric layer covering said transparent electrodes on at least one substrate of a pair of substrates facing each other with a discharge space therebetween, the main constituent of the transparent electrodes is included in the dielectric layer. Further, the main constituent of the transparent electrode is indium oxide and indium oxide is included in the dielectric layer. By including the main constituent of the transparent electrodes in the dielectric layer, it is believed that the drop in conductivity caused by diffusion of the dielectric substance in the transparent electrodes during high-temperature processing is prevented.

In the panel, at least one electrode of the electrode pair for generating the surface discharge is formed in the shape of a comb having a base portion extending in row direction of display and a tooth portion composed of a number of teeth extending from the base portion towards the other electrode. And an arrangement pitch of the teeth is 1/n of an arrangement pitch of cells in row direction of display, in which n is an integer more than or equal to two.

The address discharge in a plasma display device provided with a triple-electrode surface-discharge AC plasma display panel is controlled such that a potential difference occurring across a discharge slit between first and second electrodes selected for display is smaller than a potential difference occurring across a non-discharge slit between the first electrode not selected for display and the second electrode selected for display.

A plasma display apparatus which improves the contrast of images displayed thereon. A plurality of paired row electrodes Xi, Yi are formed in parallel with each other in a surface discharge AC plasma display apparatus. A plurality of column electrodes are formed facing to the paired row electrodes through a discharge space, and extend perpendicularly to the paired row electrodes so as to define a unit light emitting region including an intersection formed every time the column electrode cross with the paired row electrodes.

The row electrodes in the unit light emitting region are formed to have a width w of 300 .mu.m or more. The intensity of light emitted by discharge not related to display is suppressed.
Abstract:
A method of forming a protection layer of a plasma display panel, which has upper electrodes, lower electrodes and a barrier rib, includes the steps of: forming a dielectric layer on the upper electrodes; and forming a MgO protection layer on the dielectric layer by the method of direct coating the MgO solution on the surface of the dielectric layer. Some advantages are derived by properly mixing MgO particles, salt containing Mg, and organic binder and coating an MgO protection layer (thin film) on the surface of the PDP substrate irrespective of coating methods by simple facility and processing. These advantages include PDP MgO protection layer formation to reduce PDP production cost, time and firing voltages, and adjustment of the protection layer's thickness.
