Abstract: The present invention discloses a capillary discharge plasma display panel having a field shaping layer and a method of fabricating the same. More specifically, a capillary discharge panel for generating a capillary plasma discharge includes first and second substrates forming at least one discharge space there between, the first and second substrates facing into each other, a first electrode on the first substrate, a first dielectric layer on the first electrode including the first substrate, at least one second electrode on the second substrate, a second dielectric layer on the second electrode and having at least one capillary per each discharge space therein, and a field shaping layer on the second dielectric layer to confine a generated field into the capillary and eliminate a glow discharge, wherein the discharge space directly faces into the capillary and each capillary corresponds to each discharge space.
