Abstract
A plasma addressed electro-optical display with a high contrast, having a first substrate having a plurality of discharge electrodes formed thereon; a dielectric layer disposed apart from the first substrate by a predetermined distance; a plasma cell formed by sealing the peripheries of the first substrate and the dielectric layer with a sealing portion; and a second substrate disposed opposite to the dielectric layer and having data electrodes intersecting the discharge electrodes on the surface thereof, wherein the plasma cell and the second substrate are stacked in such a manner that an electro-optical material layer is interposed between the plasma cell and the second substrate so that the plasma addressed electro-optical display is formed, and a light source is disposed adjacent to the second substrate.
