  • Publication number: 20050156524
    Abstract: A plasma display panel has address properties stabilized. A priming discharge is performed between auxiliary electrodes (18), which are formed on a front substrate (1) and coupled with scan electrodes (6), and priming electrodes (14) formed on a back substrate (2). And on the front substrate (1), a dielectric layer (4) is made thinner in regions corresponding to priming cells (gap parts 13) than in regions corresponding to cell parts (11). As a result, the priming discharge has a wider margin, and a supply of priming particles to the discharge cells is stabilized, whereby a discharge delay during the addressing is reduced, and the address properties are stabilized.
