Abstract: A plasma display panel including a pair of spaced substrates defined with a discharge space therebetween, and two groups of electrodes respectively arranged on the substrates in such a manner that they intersect each other while facing each other, wherein the electrodes included in one of the electrode groups have ring-shaped loops arranged in pixel regions, respectively, and alternating current is applied to the loop electrodes. When alternating current is applied to the loop electrodes, a magnetic field is formed around the loop of each loop electrode. The magnetic fluxes of the magnetic field form an electric field while passing through a discharge space defined in each pixel region. Accordingly, particles of discharge gas are charged.
