Abstract:
Discharge cells are arranged in matrix form in the discharge space defined between a front glass substrate and a back glass substrate. Red, green and blue phosphor layers are formed individually in the discharge cells such that the phosphor layers formed in adjacent discharge cells in the column direction have different colors. One pixel consists of three adjacent discharge cells arranged in the row direction and respectively having the red phosphor layer, the green phosphor layer and the blue phosphor layer formed therein. The pixels are arranged in matrix form in the row direction and the column direction.
Abstract:
A plasma display panel capable of reducing or preventing panel breakage and aging failure during the aging process for discharge stabilization. The plasma display panel includes first and second substrates facing each other and having a display region at a center of the substrates, a non-display region formed around a periphery of the display region, and an intermediate region disposed between the display region and the non-display region. Address electrodes are formed on the first substrate and extend parallel to each other. Barrier ribs are arranged at the display region and the intermediate region. The barrier ribs define discharge cells between the substrates. Display electrodes are formed on the second substrate in a direction crossing the address electrodes. An area ratio of the display electrodes to corresponding discharge cells in the intermediate region is smaller than the area ratio thereof in the display region.

Abstract:
A method of driving a plasma display panel including a plurality of priming electrodes. The pulse width of scan pulses applied to some of a plurality of scan electrodes in which writing is performed and priming discharge is caused with the scanning of the scan electrodes is larger than the pulse width of scan pulses applied to the other scan electrodes in which writing is performed but no priming discharge is caused with the scanning of the scan electrodes.
Abstract:
A plasma display panel that is capable of improving a contrast as well as reducing the power consumption. In the plasma display panel, a distance between the sustaining electrode pair at a display region is different from that at a non-display region. A width of the barrier rib at the display region is different from that at the non-display region. The non-display region is provided with black matrices for shutting off a light.A protective layer is provided only at the display region.
Abstract:
A structure and driving method of a plasma display panel is provided, in which an amount of priming particles within a discharge cell increases to reduce discharge lag of address discharge. The structure of the plasma display panel includes a plurality of sustain electrode pairs successively formed on an upper electrode, a plurality of common electrodes formed one by one between a pair of the sustain electrodes, and a dielectric layer formed on the substrate to deposit the sustain electrodes and the common electrodes. The method for driving the plasma display panel includes the steps of applying a common pulse, which is periodically turned on/off, to the common electrodes, applying a scan pulse to one of a pair of the sustain electrodes, and applying an address pulse to the address electrodes when the scan pulse is applied to the one sustain electrode. Thus, since discharge conditions within the discharge cell can be improved, discharge lag less occurs than the related art plasma display panel.

Abstract:
A plasma display device disclosed herein is capable of enhancing the contrast of external light, facilitating application of phosphor paste on the bottom of each space surrounded by lattice-like barrier ribs, and reducing a variation in the amount of the phosphor paste applied as much as possible. The lattice-like barrier ribs include lateral ribs extending along a first direction while being nearly in parallel to each other, and vertical ribs extending along a second direction different from the first direction while being nearly in parallel to each other. Each of the lateral ribs is composed of two or more rows of rib elements. Notches for communicating spaces surrounded by the vertical ribs and the lateral ribs to each other in the first direction and/or the second direction are formed at least in portions of the vertical ribs and/or the lateral ribs.
