Abstract:
A plasma display panel including a plurality of row electrode pairs extending on a backside of a front substrate in a row direction and arranged thereon in a column direction to form display lines, and a plurality of column electrodes extending in the column direction and arranged in the row direction on a face of a back substrate which is opposite to the front substrate with interposing a space and constituting a discharge cell at each intersecting position with the row electrode pair in the space formed by the back substrate and the front substrate, and phosphor layers in the three primary colors of red, green and blue, respectively, which are respectively formed in a plurality of the resulting discharge cells in order, said plasma display panel comprising:a partition wall including vertical wall portions arranged between the front substrate and the back substrate to extend in the column direction and transverse wall portions arranged between the front substrate and the back substrate to extend in the row direction, to partition the space between the front substrate and the back substrate into said discharge cells in the row direction and the column direction, wherein each of said transverse wall portions of said partition wall defining said discharge cell formed with said red phosphor layer, said discharge cell formed with said green phosphor layer and said discharge cell formed with said blue phosphor layer is varied in width in the column direction in accordance with each luminance of red, green and blue colors, to set an opening area of a front face of said each discharge cell opposing to said front substrate.
