Abstract

A color two substrate alternating plasma display panel. The panel includes two tiles joined together so as to be opposite each other and defining a space therebetween. The space is filled with gas. One of the tiles has column electrodes which are approximately parallel, separated by a spacing and covered with at least one phosphor region. The other tile has at least one row electrode. The phosphor regions are provided with at least one recess placed at the intersection of a column electrode with the row electrode. A color pixel is formed by neighboring recesses lying within the same row electrode in adjacent phosphor regions. In order to obtain better light efficiency, the distance separating two adjacent recesses lying within adjacent phosphor regions and belonging to the same pixel is greater than the spacing so that space has a thickness greater than that required when two recesses are separated by approximately the spacing.
