Abstract: A method for producing a plasma display panel, includes mixing MgO crystals with MgF2, firing the resulting mixture. pulverizing the fired mixture to obtain powdered MgO crystals to which fluorine is added, and forming a priming particle-emitting layer on a protective layer. The priming particle-emitting layer contains the powdered MgO crystals to which fluorine is added, and the protective layer is included in a front-side substrate assembly that comprises a display electrode and a dielectric layer on a glass substrate.

Abstract: A plasma display panel has a first plate provided with a plurality of display electrodes extending in a first direction and a second plate in opposition to the first plate via a discharge space. The second plate is provided with a plurality of address electrodes extending in a second direction and a phosphor layer. The phosphor layer includes a magnesium oxide crystal and a plurality of kinds of phosphors, the phosphors being classified according to respective kinds. A surface of a particle of manganese-activated zinc silicate, which is one of the plurality of kinds of phosphors, is coated with a coating oxide which is at least one kind of element being oxidized. An electronegativity of the coating oxide is smaller than an average electronegativity of contained elements of zinc silicate excluding oxygen.

Abstract: A plasma display device capable of realizing an interlace drive in one line display and an interlace drive in two lines display by switching thereof without deteriorating display quality, is provided. The interlace drive in one line display and the interlace drive in two lines display are realized such that: the interlace drive in one line display is performed by applying a sustain pulse for even display lines or odd display lines within a plasma display panel in each frame; and the interlace drive in two lines display is performed by applying the sustain pulse while setting the even display lines and the odd display lines adjacent above and below as one set and writing an identical data thereto. In addition, the all-cell reset is performed once per unit time at the interlace drive in two lines display, and an increase of background luminance is prevented by suppressing the increase in the number of times of the all-cell reset in the two lines display.
