Plasma display panel and method of manufacturing the same

摘要

In a plasma display panel, data electrodes (12) are formed parallel to each other on a first substrate (11), and a selection voltage is to be applied to them. A dielectric layer (13) covers a surface of the first substrate (11) to include the data electrodes (12). Linear partitions (30) are formed at a predetermined interval on the first substrate (11) to be parallel to the data electrodes (12). A second substrate opposes the first substrate (11). A closed space between the first and second substrates is filled with a gas. A pair of sustain discharge electrodes are formed on the second substrate to intersect the data electrodes (12), and a discharge voltage is to be applied across them. Intersections of the pair of sustain discharge electrodes and data electrodes (12) form matrix-like discharge cells (100). Stepped partitions (20) are formed at a predetermined interval on the first substrate (11) in a direction intersecting the linear partitions (30), and have heights smaller than those of the linear partitions (30). Notched openings (301) are formed in the linear partitions (30) at intersections of the linear and stepped partitions. A method of manufacturing a plasma display panel is also disclosed.
