Abstract:
1. A plasma display panel comprising: a front substrate; a rear substrate facing the front substrate; a dielectric wall positioned between the front and rear substrates and defining discharge cells with the front and rear substrates; an X electrode embedded within the dielectric wall and positioned to span a first corner of one of the discharge cells; a Y electrode embedded within the dielectric wall and positioned to span a second corner of one of the discharge cells, the second corner being opposite the first corner, wherein the Y electrode and the X electrode are substantially planar and are substantially in the same plane; an address electrode embedded within the dielectric layer, and positioned so as to cross the Y electrode; and red, green, or blue phosphor layers applied in each of the discharge cells, wherein the address electrode is positioned substantially within a second plane separate from and parallel to the first plane and the address electrode is positioned substantially adjacent to the X and Y electrodes, wherein the X electrode extends in a predetermined direction, and the Y electrode extends in a direction parallel to a side of the discharge cell and to the X electrode, and the X electrode comprises an X electrode line and an X electrode protrusion extending from the X electrode line toward the Y electrode, the X electrode protrusion extending substantially in the same plane as the X electrode.
