Abstract

A plasma display panel (PDP) and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. The PDP comprises a front panel in which bus electrodes comprising a black material are formed on transparent electrodes and a rear panel attached to the front panel to be separated from each other by a predetermined distance.

Claims

1. A plasma display panel comprising:

a front panel comprising a bus electrode comprising a black material formed on a transparent electrode; and

a rear panel attached to the front panel with a predetermined distance therebetween.

2. The plasma display panel of claim 1, wherein the bus electrode comprises at least one of silver(Ag), copper(Cu) or chrome(Cr).

3. The plasma display panel of claim 1,

wherein the bus electrode comprises a silver particle and the black material;

wherein the black material coats the silver particle.

4. The plasma display panel of claim 1,

wherein the black material comprises a conductive material.

5. The plasma display panel of claim 3, wherein the black material comprises a conductive material.

6. The plasma display panel of claim 5, wherein the thickness of the black material ranges from 0.1 μ

m to 5 μ

m.

7. The plasma display panel of claim 1, wherein the black material comprises a non-conductive material.

8. The plasma display panel of claim 3, wherein the black material comprises a non-conductive material.

9. The plasma display panel of claim 8, wherein the thickness of the black material ranges from 0.1 μ

m to 1 μ

m.

10. A plasma display panel comprising:

a front panel comprising a bus electrode comprising a black material formed on a substrate; and

a rear panel attached to the front panel with a predetermined distance therebetween.

11. The plasma display panel of claim 10, wherein the bus electrode comprises at least one of silver(Ag), copper(Cu) or chrome(Cr).

12. The plasma display panel of claim 10,

wherein the bus electrode comprises a silver particle and a black material;

and

wherein the black material coats the silver particle.

13. The plasma display panel of claim 10,

wherein the black material comprises a conductive material.

14. The plasma display panel of claim 12, wherein the black material comprises a conductive material.

15. The plasma display panel of claim 14, wherein the thickness of black material ranges from 0.1 μ

m to 5 μ

m.

16. The plasma display panel of claim 10, wherein the black material comprises a non-conductive material.

17. The plasma display panel of claim 12, wherein the black material comprises a non-conductive material.

18. The plasma display panel of claim 17, wherein the thickness of black material ranges from 0.1 μ

m to 1 μ

m.

19. A method of manufacturing a plasma display panel comprising:

(a) forming a transparent electrode on a substrate;

(b) depositing on the transparent electrode a bus electrode paste comprising a black material and either a silver(Ag) particle or a copper(Cu) particle; and

(c) forming a bus electrode pattern by exposing the bus electrode paste.

20. The method of claim 19,

wherein the black material coats the silver particle or the copper particle.
