Abstract
An AC plasma display panel in which variation in display luminance and occurrence of error display are suppressed is provided. A first insulating substrate and a second insulating substrate are positioned opposing each other. On the first insulating substrate, a scanning/sustain-electrode group including a plurality of sets of a scanning electrode and a sustain electrode that are arranged in parallel to each other and a dielectric layer covering the scanning/sustain-electrode group are provided. A plurality of data electrodes that are orthogonal to and opposing the scanning electrode and the sustain electrode are provided on the second insulating substrate. Discharges between the scanning electrode and the sustain electrode allow phosphors to emit light. Each of the plurality of sets includes, as a unit, the scanning electrode and the sustain electrodes positioned on both sides of the scanning electrode, and the plurality of sets are separated from one another.
