A plasma display panel. A first substrate and a second substrate are
provided opposing one another with a predetermined gap therebetween.
Address electrodes are formed on the second substrate. Barrier ribs are
mounted between the first substrate and the second substrate, the barrier
ribs defining a plurality of discharge cells. Also, red, green, and blue
phosphor layers are formed within each of the discharge cells. Discharge
sustain electrodes are formed on the first substrate. The barrier ribs
comprise first barrier rib members formed substantially parallel to the
direction of the address electrodes, and second barrier rib members
obliquely connected to the first barrier rib members and intersecting
over the address electrodes. The second barrier rib members are formed to
different widths according to discharge cell color such that red, green,
and blue discharge cells have different volumes.
