Patent ID: 7952277

Claim:
A plasma display panel, comprising: a pair of substrates facing each other with at least one discharge space therebetween; a plurality of row electrode pairs which extend in a row direction and are formed on one of the substrates, each pair being formed by said row electrodes facing each other via a discharge gap respectively; a dielectric layer formed on the substrate and covering the row electrode pairs; and a plurality of column electrodes which extend in a column direction and are formed in the row direction on the other substrate, a unit emission area being formed in the discharge space at each portion where the column electrode and row electrode pair cross, and discharge gas containing xenon being sealed in the discharge space, wherein the dielectric layer comprises a thin film portion and a thick film portion, and the thin film portion of the dielectric layer is formed to be an area having a width of 150 μm or less in a column direction on at least one of the said row electrode of the row electrode pair, and a thin film having a width in the column direction wider than the width in the column direction of the thin film which is set to 150 μm or less is formed on the other row electrode of the row electrode pair, and a partial pressure of xenon in the discharge gas is set to 6.67 kPa or more.
