A plasma addressed display device includes a flat panel, a scanning circuit and a signal circuit. The flat panel is of a superimposed structure of a plasma cell having scanning electrodes in a row configuration and a display cell having scanning electrodes in a column configuration. The scanning circuit sequentially applies selection pulses to the scanning electrode to scan the display panel. The signal circuit writes the picture data in the signal electrode in synchronism with this scanning. On the plasma cells, there are formed reciprocally isolated discharge channels in a row configuration. To each discharge channel, charged with an electrically dischargeable gas, are allotted plural scanning electrodes. As characteristic of the present invention, the scanning circuit sequentially applies the selection pulses to the scanning electrode allotted to a sole discharge channel to produce electrical discharge to form at least two scanning lines to a sole discharge channel. This realizes a high open area ratio and high resolution of the plasma addressed display device.

摘要:
A discharge chamber wherein the allowability for positional displacement of electrodes is increased to facilitate manufacture of the discharge chamber and a method of manufacturing the discharge chamber are disclosed. The discharge chamber has a flat panel structure wherein a first substrate and a second substrate are adhered to each other with a predetermined gap left therebetween. Striped anodes and cathodes are arranged alternately on the first substrate. Barrier ribs are interposed between the two substrates and arranged in a stripe pattern to partition the gap to form discharge channels. The anodes are arranged just below the barrier ribs and have a width dimension smaller than the width dimension of the barrier ribs. Meanwhile, each of the cathodes is arranged intermediately between each adjacent ones of the cathodes. Even if the barrier ribs suffer from relative positional displacement, the exposed surface area of the cathodes by which plasma discharge is dominated is kept fixed.
