The PDP has a front panel, and has a back panel with address electrodes formed thereon. Front panel has display electrodes including first electrodes and second electrodes formed on a front glass substrate, and a dielectric layer covering display electrodes. Further, the first electrodes and the dielectric layer include glass frit, which contains at least one of molybdenum oxide, magnesium oxide and cerium oxide, and also include a softening point exceeding 550&#xb0; C. The above-described makeup suppresses a coloring phenomenon in the dielectric layer and the front glass substrate, thereby implementing a plasma display panel with a high luminance.

Plasma display panel with improved luminance

A plasma display panel (PDP) is made of front panel () and a rear panel. The front panel includes display electrodes (), dielectric layer (), and protective layer () that are formed on front glass substrate (). The rear panel includes electrodes, barrier ribs, and phosphor layers that are formed on a rear glass substrate. The front panel and the rear panel are faced with each other, and the peripheries thereof are sealed to form a discharge space therebetween. Display electrodes () includes metal electrodes () each containing at least silver and binding glass. The binding glass of black electrodes () and white electrodes () constituting metal bus electrodes () contains at least bismuth oxide and has a softening point exceeding 550&#xb0; C.
