Front-side filter and plasma display panel device including the front-side filter

A plasma display panel device, comprising:

• a case;
• a cover for covering an upper surface of the case;
• a driving circuit board enclosed by the case;
• a panel assembly disposed on the driving circuit board and enclosed by the case;
• and
• a front-side filter including:
• a filter base having at least one function among a near-infrared ray shielding function, a neon light shielding function, and an electromagnetic wave shielding function;
• and
• an antireflective layer positioned over the filter base, the antireflective layer having an edge pattern, formed on a side of the filter base in such a way that only parts and not the entirety of the edge portion of an upper surface of the filter base are exposed through the edge pattern to provide an adhesive fixing means formed in the exposed edge pattern of the upper surface of the filter base,
• wherein the adhesive fixing means fixes the front-side filter to the cover.
