PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a plasma display panel having excellent display performance at low cost. SOLUTION: The plasma display panel has a front face plate provided with a plurality of display electrodes in a row direction with an electric discharge gap provided in between; a rear face plate arranged to face the front face plate with an electric discharge space provided in between; and barrier ribs 13 partitioning the electric discharge space for every electric discharge cell. The barrier ribs 13 are composed of vertical barrier ribs 13a formed in parallel with data electrodes 12, and horizontal barrier ribs 13b formed to exist between the display electrodes of the adjacent electric discharge cells in a direction to intersect the vertical barrier ribs 13a. The horizontal barrier ribs 13b are formed to be lower in height than the vertical barrier ribs 13a. The display electrodes are constituted to be low in luminosity when viewed from a screen on the substrate side, and a shading member does not exist between the display electrodes of the adjacent electric discharge cells.
