PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL

摘要

A transmission type PDP having a contrast enhanced by reducing or preventing influences of diffuse reflection by a phosphor layer is described. This PDP includes: a first substrate structure (rear unit) having a pair of display electrodes formed thereto; a second substrate structure (front unit) having an address electrode formed thereto and having a display surface; a barrier rib; and a phosphor layer between the barrier ribs. A width of the address electrode is formed to be the same as or larger than a width of a bottom surface portion of the phosphor layer between the barrier ribs, thereby hiding the bottom portion of the phosphor by the address electrode. In this manner, the diffuse reflection at the bottom surface portion of the phosphor layer is mostly suppressed.
