Plasma display panel

A plasma display panel having an effective area to display an image and a dummy area disposed around the effective area, the plasma display panel comprising:

• opposing first and second substrates;
• address electrodes extending in a first direction, disposed on the first substrate;
• display electrodes extending in a second direction crossing the first direction, disposed on the second substrate;
• and
• a discharge layer disposed between the first and second substrates, having discharge spaces and non-discharge spaces disposed between the discharge spaces, in the first direction, the discharge layer comprising:
• a discharge enhancement layer disposed on the first substrate, having first spaces formed therein;
• and
• a barrier rib layer disposed on the discharge enhancement layer, having second spaces formed therein that are connected to corresponding ones of the first spaces, such that the first and second spaces form discharge cells, wherein,
• the barrier rib layer and the discharge enhancement layer are disposed in the effective area, and
• the discharge enhancement layer comprises a perimeter member disposed in the dummy area and extending from the effective area.
