METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL AND PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL

摘要

A plasma display panel (PDP) having a front substrate structure (first substrate structure) and a back substrate structure (second substrate structure) arranged so as to be opposed to each other via a discharge space is manufactured in the following manner. A sealing member arranged in a frame shape so as to surround outside of a barrier rib formation region where barrier ribs partitioning a discharge space are arranged and a plurality of supporting members arranged in a region between an outer periphery of the barrier rib formation region and the sealing member are formed, respectively. The supporting members are made from material having a softening point higher than that of material for the sealing member, the height of the supporting members is made higher than that of the barrier ribs, and the height of the sealing member is made higher than the height of the supporting members.
