Patent ID: 7253560

Claim:
A triode surface discharge type AC plasma display panel comprising: a pair of substrates disposed in spaced opposed relation, at least one of the pair of substrates of which has a plurality of display electrodes formed thereon and extended in a first direction, the plurality of display electrodes being mostly covered with a dielectric layer made of silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ); and a sealing member which seals the pair of substrates outside a display region, wherein the plurality of display electrodes have ends of bus electrodes laying outside the display region at an opposite end portions of the first direction on said at least one substrate and uncovered with the dielectric layer, the sealing member at the opposite end portions of the first direction of said at least one substrate is partially located on the dielectric layer and is disposed in contact with the uncovered ends of the bus electrodes, and further the sealing member at an another opposite end portions of a second direction intersecting the first direction of said at least one substrate is wholly located on the dielectric layer.
