Abstract:
A plasma display panel for displaying color images having X electrodes for supplying a sustain pulse and Y electrodes for supplying a scan pulse and a sustain pulse in which said Y electrodes and said X electrodes are arranged alternatively and in parallel with one another, and address electrodes arranged perpendicular to said X and said Y electrodes with a discharge space there between, and enclosing a discharge gas in said discharge spaces for generating ultraviolet rays in a plasma state which is formed by discharging said discharge gas by driving said X electrodes and said Y electrodes after write discharge operations between said Y electrodes and said address electrodes, comprising:a visible light generating unit for generating visible light by using said ultraviolet rays; wherein said discharge gas is a mixed gas consisting of Xe, He and Ne, wherein a mixed ratio of Xe to said discharge gas is set from over 1% to 8% in volume at most (1% in volumewherein a mixed ratio of He to Ne in an He and Ne gas is set from over 8% to 40% in volume at most (8% in volume
