Patent ID: 8098013

Claim:
A plasma display device comprising a plasma display panel, the plasma display panel including: a first substrate having a plurality of first electrode pairs extending in a first direction; a second substrate facing the first substrate and having a plurality of second electrodes extending in a second direction intersecting with the first direction; and a plurality of discharge cells provided on each position at which the plurality of first electrode pairs and the plurality of second electrodes intersect, wherein each of the plurality of discharge cells includes: a discharge gap provided between the first substrate and the second substrate facing the first substrate and surrounded by a barrier rib on the second substrate; a discharge gas containing Xe for filling the discharge gap; and a phosphor layer provided on the second substrate so as to be in contact with the discharge gap, the phosphor layer including a red phosphor material, a blue phosphor material or a green phosphor material, and wherein a firing voltage of a reset discharge of a discharge cell including a red phosphor material is uniform with a firing voltage of a reset discharge of a discharge cell including a blue phosphor material and is uniform with a firing voltage of a reset discharge of a discharge cell including a green phosphor material.
