Abstract
A plasma display device has a first plate and a second plate which face each other with a discharge space therebetween, and a sealing member which is provided between the first and second plates to seal the discharge space at edges of the first and second plates. A plurality of electrodes are formed on the inner major surface of the first or second plate. An electrode diffusion preventive layer is formed in each area where the plurality of electrodes cross over the sealing member, so as to avoid direct contact between the plurality of electrodes and the sealing member. As a result, problems such as breaking of the electrodes can be avoided. This construction is especially effective when the electrodes contain Ag.
