Abstract:
A plasma display panel comprising:a first substrate including a first dielectric material layer which covers a plurality of address electrodes, back face barrier ribs, each of which is located between two neighboring address electrodes, a fluorescent material layer which covers said back face barrier ribs and said first dielectric material layer; and a second substrate including plural pairs of X sustain electrodes and Y sustain electrodes, which are arranged crossing at right angles to said address electrodes, and a second dielectric material layer which covers said sustain electrodes; wherein said first substrate is arranged opposite to said second substrate via a discharge space which is filled with gas for radiating ultraviolet rays to make said fluorescent material layer emit light and buffer gas, and the thickness of said second dielectric layer in said second substrate is set larger, at a portion between a respective pair of said X and Y sustain electrodes, than that at other portions in said second dielectric layer.
