Abstract: The present invention presents top/bottom widths of the first and second barrier rib of the plasma display device. The first barrier rib fulfills a condition of 0<the bottom width?the top width<80 ?m or/and the second barrier rib fulfills a condition of 0<the bottom width?the top width<50 ?m. Furthermore, at least one of a first condition of 0.63<a value where the first length of a region of the rear substrate other than a region in which the barrier ribs are formed in a discharge space within the discharge cell and a region in which the scan electrode is overlapped is divided by the first pitch of the discharge cell<1, a second condition of 0.24<a value where the second length of the region is divided by the second pitch of the discharge cell<1, and a third condition of 0.15<a value where an area of the region is divided by an area of the discharge cell<1 is fulfilled.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a plasma display apparatus. A bus electrode with high definition is formed and is formed on barrier ribs with a predetermined margin therebetween so that it is not overlapped with a discharge space. Therefore, the bus electrode does not infiltrate into a discharge space due to alignment error on upper/lower substrates. Furthermore, a transparent electrode in which at least one or more projections are formed from the bus electrode to the inside of a discharge space constitutes a scan electrode or a sustain electrode. A width of the transparent electrode is formed to be narrower than that of the bus electrode. Therefore, capacitance by the upper plate electrode can be reduced.
