Abstract:
1. A plasma display panel, comprising: a first substrate; a plurality of pairs of a first electrode and a second electrode formed on the first substrate and extending parallel with each other, the first electrode and the second electrode generating a sustain discharge, and each of the first electrode and the second electrode including a recessed portion and a projection portion such that the recessed portion and the projection portion of the first electrode face the recessed portion and the projection portion of the second electrode; a second substrate on a side of the first substrate on which the first electrode and the second electrode are formed such that a discharge space is interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate; a plurality of address electrodes formed on the second substrate and facing the first substrate; barrier ribs partitioning the discharge space between the first substrate and the second substrate into a plurality of discharge cells; and a fluorescent substance formed in each of the discharge cells, wherein gas pressure of discharge gas in the discharge space is over 450 Torr, wherein the recessed portions of the first electrode and the second electrode are opposite with each other and the projection portions of the first electrode and the second electrode are opposite with each other, and wherein the opposite recessed portions of a pair of the first electrode and the second electrode and the opposite projection portions of the pair of the first electrode and the second electrode define a discharge gap.
