Abstract
An improved PDP electrode is disclosed. The PDP electrode according to the present invention includes a metallic electrode provided with an end portion width in the non-effective potion of a screen greater than an electrode width in the effective portion, wherein a PDP(Plasma Display Panel) includes a substrate formed of a screen effective portion and non-effective portion, a transparent electrode and metallic electrode arranged in an effective portion of the substrate and each having a certain width in the effective portion, and an electrode having one end extended toward a pad portion of the non-effective portion, for thereby selectively increasing the width of a metallic electrode in a range which does not affect the transmittance, so that it is possible to implement a quick and reliable disconnection and short-circuit checking operation for a metallic electrode which is generally designed to have a minimum line width for a transmittance of a visual ray.
