Abstract:
A plasma display device comprising:a rear substrate;a plurality of first electrodes on an upper surface of said rear substrate in a pattern;a plurality of second electrodes and a plurality of third electrodes spaced from said first electrodes by a distance, parallel to each other, and perpendicular to said first electrodes;a plurality of auxiliary electrodes parallel to each other, each auxiliary electrode being located between one of said second electrodes and one of said third electrodes and floating electrically, the electrodes being arranged in repeating groups, each group including, serially arranged, one of said second electrodes, one of said auxiliary electrodes, and one of said third electrodes, the third electrode of one group being adjacent the second electrode of an adjacent group;a dielectric layer on the upper surface of said rear substrate covering said first electrodes, said second electrodes, and said third electrodes, said auxiliary electrodes being embedded in and electrically insulated from one another by said dielectric layer; anda front substrate supported by and separated from said rear substrate by said dielectric layer and defining a discharge space.
