Abstract
In a plasma display panel, data electrodes are formed parallel to each other on a first substrate, and a selection voltage is to be applied to them. A dielectric layer covers a surface of the first substrate to include the data electrodes. Linear partitions are formed at a predetermined interval on the first substrate to be parallel to the data electrodes. A second substrate opposes the first substrate. A closed space between the first and second substrates is filled with a gas. Intersections of a pair of sustain discharge electrodes and data electrodes form matrix-like discharge cells. Stepped partitions are formed at a predetermined interval on the first substrate in a direction intersecting the linear partitions.
