<p>A plasma display device capable of displaying with a high definition and a high brightness, reducing a power consumption, and increasing a reliability, wherein pairs of maintenance electrodes (17a) and (17b) of 40 νm thick, for example, are installed on a front glass substrate (12), the thickness being sufficient for the pair of maintenance electrodes (17a) and (17b) to use the opposed surfaces thereof as substantial discharge surfaces and discharge routes being a straight between the opposed surfaces, whereby the probability of metastable particles produced at the time of discharge coming out of the areas between the opposed surfaces and moving to the outer periphery thereof is decreased and, as a whole, the long service life of the device can be maintained.</p> |
