Plasma display panel

A plasma display panel comprising:

• a first substrate and a second substrate opposing each other;
• address electrodes formed on said second substrate;
• barrier ribs arranged in a space between said first substrate and said second substrate to define a plurality of discharge cells and non discharge regions;
• phosphor layers formed within each of the discharge cells;
• and
• display electrodes formed on said first substrate,
• wherein a non-discharge region is formed in an area encompassed by discharge cell abscissas that pass through centers of adjacent discharge cells and discharge cell ordinates that pass through centers of adjacent discharge cells, and the non-discharge region is at least greater than the width of the upper portion of each of said barrier ribs,
• wherein the discharge cells are arranged to form an alternating pattern such that the pitches between the centers of the adjacent discharge cells in the direction of said address electrodes are different from one another so that the discharge cells are arranged to alternate “A” and “B” sections,
• wherein the pitches between the centers of the adjacent discharge cells are respectively “a” and “b” (a<b) being different from each other, and a section having the distance (pitch) “a” between the centers is the “A” section, and a section having the pitch “b” between the centers is the “B” section, and
• wherein said display electrodes have an array structure of scan electrode (Y electrode)—sustain electrode (X electrode)—scan electrode (Y electrode) for a pair of the adjacent discharge cells of which the boundary lies within the section A.

A plasma display panel comprising:

• a first substrate and a second substrate opposing each other;
• address electrodes formed on said second substrate;
• barrier ribs arranged in a space between said first substrate and the second substrate to define a plurality of discharge cells as independent cells;
• phosphor layers formed within each of the discharge cells;
• and
• display electrodes formed on said first substrate, each having a sustain electrode (X electrode) and a scan electrode (Y electrode) in a corresponding pair within each of the discharge cells,
• wherein said discharge cells are arranged to form an alternating pattern such that the pitches between the centers of the adjacent discharge cells in the direction of the address electrodes are different from each other.

• a plurality of barrier ribs arranged in the space between a first substrate and a second substrate to define a plurality of discharge cells and non-discharge regions, said second substrate including a plurality of address electrodes;
• a plurality of display electrodes formed on said first substrate, each including a sustain electrode (X electrode) and a scan electrode (Y electrode) in a corresponding pair within each of said discharge cells, said discharge cells being arranged to form an alternating pattern such that the pitches between the centers of the adjacent discharge cells in the direction of the address electrodes are different from one another;
• and
• a non-discharge region formed in an area encompassed by discharge cell abscissas that pass through centers of adjacent discharge cells and discharge cell ordinates that pass through centers of adjacent discharge cells, and the non-discharge region being at least greater than the width of the upper portion of each of said barrier ribs.
