Abstract

Abstract A plasma display panel comprises two substrates and a plurality of striped anodes and cathodes arranged on the substrate in X/Y matrix form. A method of manufacturing the PDP comprises the consecutive steps of forming a plurality of striped first cathode elements, forming a plurality of insulating wall bodies, an completing the cathode units. The PDP has a much higher cathode current than the conventional PDPs and realizes a pictorial image of uniform luminance throughout the whole screen.

Claim 10
Independent Claim 99 words
A method of fabricating a plasma display panel which comprises a face substrate, a rear substrate and a plurality of striped anodes and cathodes arranged in an X/Y matrix on said substrates, comprising the steps of: forming a plurality of striped first cathode elements in parallel and at regular intervals on said rear plate; forming a plurality of insulating walls of a certain height between said first cathode elements; completing unit cathodes by forming second cathode elements on the sides of said insulating walls, which are electrically connected to said first cathode elements located between each neighboring insulating wall.
Claim 11
Independent Claim 99 words
A method of fabricating a plasma display panel which comprises a face substrate, a rear substrate and a plurality of striped anodes and cathodes arranged in an X/Y matrix on said substrates, comprising the steps of: forming a plurality of striped first cathode elements in parallel and at regular intervals on said rear plate; forming a plurality of insulating walls of a certain height between said first cathode elements; completing unit cathodes by forming second cathode elements on the sides of said insulating walls, which are electrically connected to said first cathode elements located between each neighboring insulating wall.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 47 words
A method of fabricating a plasma display panel as claimed in claim 9, wherein electrically independent U-shaped unit cathodes are formed between the insulating walls by forming conductive layers over said first cathode elements and the tops of the walls and insulating the layers from one another.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 60 words
A plasma display panel comprising: a face substrate and a rear substrate; a plurality of striped anodes and cathodes formed on said face and rear substrates, respectively, said cathodes divided into first and second cathode elements; and a plurality of walls of predetermined heights disposed between the first cathode elements having sides that are contiguous to the second cathode elements.
