Patent 7800306 was granted and assigned to LG on September, 2010 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A plasma display panel is provided. The plasma display panel has an electrode structure in which a second gap formed between electrode pairs in a discharge cell at a corner region of the panel is smaller than a gap formed between electrode pairs in a discharge cell at a more peripheral region of the panel. The plasma display panel may improve discharge capabilities, particularly in the more peripheral region of the panel, when a foreign substance is present on surfaces of the electrodes.
