Abstract
A plasma display panel (PDP) includes first and second substrates provided in opposition to one another, address electrodes formed on the first substrate, barrier ribs mounted between the first and second substrates so as to define a plurality of discharge cells, phosphor layers formed in the discharge cells, first and second electrodes formed on the second substrate, and third electrodes mounted between the first and second electrodes at positions corresponding to the discharge cells. The first and second electrodes are positioned further from the second substrate than the third electrodes, and a spacing is provided between the first and second electrodes. A method for driving the PDP includes (a) applying a reset waveform to the third electrodes during a reset interval, (b) applying a scan pulse to the third electrodes during an address interval, and (c) applying a sustain discharge voltage alternately to the first and second electrodes during a sustain discharge interval.
