A plasma addressing display device has a flat panel structure in which a display cell and a plasma cell are stacked to each other. The plasma cell has discharge electrodes formed on a lower substrate in such a manner as to extend along the discharge channels, and barrier ribs formed in such a manner as to partition adjacent ones of the discharge channels from each other. The feature of the present invention lies in the discharge electrodes. The discharge electrode is composed of a pair of longitudinal electrode portions disposed on both sides of the barrier rib, and a plurality of crossarm electrode portions disposed on the underside of the barrier rib in such a manner as to connect the longitudinal electrode portions to each other. The discharge electrode has a ladder structure as a whole. Such an electrode structure is effective to increase the adhesive strength of the barrier ribs against the lower substrate, to reduce the resistance of the discharge electrodes, and to prevent occurrence of disconnection of the discharge electrodes. |
