Abstract
A plasma addressed liquid crystal display device has a plurality of plasma channels, each having discharge electrodes for plasma discharge, in an area divided by parallel partitions associated with reference electrodes. The discharge electrodes are formed by a pair of transparent electrodes having pre-set electrode widths and electrode intervals and a bus electrode of a material lower in the electrical resistance than the material of the transparent electrode and which is arranged in association with each transparent electrode. With the present plasma addressed liquid crystal display device, stable display can be obtained in an entire area of the viewing screen.
