Plasma display panel and method of manufacturing the same

A plasma display panel, comprising:

• a scan electrode, a sustain electrode, and a barrier rib formed on a glass;
• and
• an upper dielectric layer having a differential thickness formed on the glass, the upper dielectric layer covering the scan electrode and the sustain electrode,
• wherein a distance between the scan electrode and the sustain electrode located within a discharge cell partitioned by the barrier rib is more than a height of the barrier rib, and
• a thickness of a differential dielectric layer formed at a discharge gap between the scan electrode and the sustain electrode located within the discharge cell is more than a distance between transparent electrodes of the scan electrode and the sustain electrode, and is less than bus electrodes of the scan electrode and the sustain electrode.

A method of manufacturing a plasma display panel, comprising:

• forming a scan electrode and a sustain electrode on a glass;
• forming a first upper dielectric layer covering the scan electrode and the sustain electrode;
• and
• forming a second upper dielectric layer on the first upper dielectric layer.
