Abstract:
A plasma display panel comprising:a first substrate; a plurality of selection electrodes which are formed parallel to each other on said first substrate and to which a selection voltage is to be applied; a first dielectric layer covering a surface of said first substrate to include said selection electrodes; a plurality of first partitions formed at a predetermined interval on said first substrate to be parallel to said selection electrodes; a second substrate arranged to oppose said first substrate, a closed space between said first and second substrates being filled with a gas; a plurality of pairs of discharge electrodes which are formed on said second substrate to intersect said selection electrodes and between which a discharge voltage is to be applied, intersections of said pairs of discharge electrodes and said selection electrodes forming a matrix-like discharge cells; a plurality of second partitions which are formed at a predetermined interval on said first substrate in a direction intersecting said first partitions and have heights smaller than those of said first partitions; and notched openings formed in said first partitions at intersections of said first and second partitions.
