Abstract: The present invention relates to a plasma display panel comprising transparent electrodes and a dielectric layer covering said transparent electrodes on at least one substrate of a pair of substrates facing each other with a discharge space therebetween, the main constituent of the transparent electrodes is included in the dielectric layer. Further, the main constituent of the transparent electrode is indium oxide and indium oxide is included in the dielectric layer. By including the main constituent of the transparent electrodes in the dielectric layer, it is believed that the drop in conductivity caused by diffusion of the dielectric substance in the transparent electrodes during high-temperature processing is prevented.

Abstract: Local losses of material of transparent electrodes, in a plasma display panel including transparent electrodes, bus electrodes and, a dielectric layer covering these electrodes, are prevented by using a plasma display panel according to the present invention. The plasma display panel is formed on at least one substrate of a pair of substrates provided opposite each other via a discharge space. An element, which is a main element of the bus electrode composition, is included in the composition of the dielectric layer. Since the main element of the bus electrode is included in the dielectric layer, local losses of the transparent electrode can be prevented even through the high temperature baking process of the dielectric layer. A preferred choice as the main element of the bus electrode composition is copper, but other elements are also suitable and will perform acceptably.

Abstract: In the present invention, the process of forming the dielectric layer is carried out by laminating a dielectric thin film sheet on a substrate. Alternatively, it is carried out by sealing together a dielectric thin film sheet and the rear-side substrate whilst leaving a discharge gap therebetween. In particular, by using a dielectric thin film sheet to constitute the dielectric layer formed onto the display-side substrate, which must be transparent, the conventional processes of printing and anneling become unnecessary. For this dielectric thin film sheet, a micro-sheet comprising borosilicate glass or soda-lime glass as a principal component is used. This micro-sheet may have a thickness of 5 &mgr;m or less, and it is suitable as a dielectric layer for a plasma display panel.

Abstract: A plasma display panel has a first substrate, a plurality of address electrodes disposed on the first substrate, a first dielectric layer disposed on the first substrate in covering relation to the address electrodes, a second substrate, a plurality of scan electrodes disposed on the second substrate in a direction transverse to the address electrodes, a second dielectric layer disposed on the second substrate in covering relation to the scan electrodes. The first substrate and the second substrate are disposed in confronting relation to each other with discharge spaces defined therebetween. The first dielectric layer contains electrically conductive particles mixed therewith. The electrically conductive particles make the first dielectric layer electrically conductive in its transverse direction to allow charges stored on the first dielectric layer to leak to the address electrodes for thereby reducing the frequency of random discharges.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to prevent deterioration of a transparent electrically-conductive film which forms display electrodes, so as to enhance the reliability of display electrodes. In an AC type plasma display panel including a plurality of display electrodes X & Y formed of a transparent electrically-conductive film or a multiple layer of a transparent electrically-conductive film plus a metal film a width of which is narrower therethan, and a dielectric layer to cover the display electrodes from the discharge space, the dielectric layer is formed by the use of a ZnO-containing glass material containing substantially none of lead. Moreover, the display electrodes are protected by coating the dielectric layer so far as the ends of display electrodes; and the coating is removed afterwards by etching, etc.
