Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing a plasma display panel in which a discharge space is formed by a pair of glass substrates disposed to face each other, and a through port is formed at a corner portion of at least one of the glass substrates for filling a discharge gas to the discharge space, the method comprising: a step of providing a substrate glass from which a plurality of glass substrates are to be cut out, wherein the glass substrates to be cut out are arranged in two columns and in at least two rows; a step of forming all of the through ports, each of which being formed for each of the plurality of glass substrates to be cut out, at a rim portion of the substrate glass, wherein the through ports are formed on a diagonal row of a rectangular portion consisting of the glass substrate arranged in the same line out of the glass substrates arranged in two columns, and one of the through ports is disposed at a rim portion of the rectangular portion at one end portion of the diagonal line and other one of the through ports is disposed at the rim portion of the rectangular portion at an other end portion of the diagonal line; and a step of forming a structure of the plasma display panel to the substrate glass.
