A plasma display panel has address properties stabilized. A priming discharge is performed between auxiliary electrodes (), which are formed on a front substrate () and coupled with scan electrodes (), and priming electrodes () formed on a back substrate (). And on the front substrate (), a dielectric layer () is made thinner in regions corresponding to priming cells (gap parts) than in regions corresponding to cell parts (). As a result, the priming discharge has a wider margin, and a supply of priming particles to the discharge cells is stabilized, whereby a discharge delay during the addressing is reduced, and the address properties are stabilized.

Plasma display panel having priming discharge cell

A plasma display panel has address properties stabilized. A priming discharge is performed between auxiliary electrodes (), which are formed on a front substrate () and coupled with scan electrodes () and priming electrodes () formed on a back substrate (). Furthermore, a material layer () containing at least one of alkali metal oxide, alkaline earth metal oxide and fluoride is provided on regions corresponding to priming discharge spaces () (gap parts) on the back substrate (). As a result, the priming discharge has a wider margin, and a supply of priming particles to the discharge cells is stabilized, whereby a discharge delay during the addressing is reduced, and the address properties are stabilized.
