A plasma display device is disclosed, in which dark contrast can be enhanced without deteriorating the image quality. A method of driving such a plasma display device is also disclosed. In this plasma display device, a magnesium oxide layer containing a magnesium oxide crystal is excited by the irradiation of an electron beam, thereby performing a cathode luminescence having a peak in a wavelength range of 200 to 300 nm by a sub-field method. In order to initialize all display cells, a reset discharge is caused in each of the display cells in M sub-fields of N consecutive sub-fields (0<M<N). |
