Patent number: 7431627Abstract: Address electrode patterns are formed on a rear surface glass substrate using a silver paste for forming address electrodes, and these patterns are dried. The average particle size of the silver powder in the silver paste is approximately 10 nm, and the softening point of the glass frit is approximately 420° C. The content ratio of the glass frit in the silver paste is set to 5 wt %. Then, a dielectric layer pattern is formed by using glass paste for forming a white dielectric layer so as to cover the address electrode patterns, and this dielectric layer pattern is dried. The glass frit in the glass paste has a softening point of approximately 540° C. Then, the address electrode patterns and the dielectric layer patterns are baked at a temperature of 540° C. Thus, the resin components in the address electrode patterns and the dielectric layer pattern are burnt away, and the glass frit components are softened so as to be fixed onto the rear surface glass substrate.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2004Date of Patent: October 7, 2008Assignee: Pioneer CorporationInventors: Osamu Oida, Takuo Shinohara

Patent number: 6232717Abstract: In an AC type surface discharge color plasma display panel which includes transparent electrodes (2) formed on a first substrate surface of a first substrate (1), bus electrodes (3) formed on the transparent electrodes, respectively, first, second, and third color filter layers (4R, 4G, and 4B), and a transparent dielectric layer (5) covering the transparent electrodes, the bus electrodes, and the color filter layers, each of the first, the second, and the third color filter layers and each of the bus electrodes are located offset from each other on the first substrate surface so as not to overlap each other and so as not to be brought into contact with each other. The transparent electrodes are substantially parallel to each other. The bus electrodes are substantially parallel to each other and to the transparent electrodes.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 1998Date of Patent: May 15, 2001Assignee: NEC CorporationInventors: Osamu Oida, Takuo Shinohara
