Also in this case, similarly to the third embodiment, the sustain electrodes 47 a and 47 b are disposed between the discharge auxiliary electrodes 47 c adjacent to each other along the longitudinal direction of the discharge space on the surface opposed thereto. It is formed with a thickness sufficient to cause discharge, and the thickness can be, for example, 40 Am.
- the discharge assisting electrode 47c is also formed with a sufficient thickness so that a discharge occurs between the electrodes adjacent to each other on the surface facing the electrode, and the thickness can be set to, for example, 40 ⁇ . .
- the thickness may be about several ⁇ to 10z ⁇ m.
- the sustain electrodes 47 a and 47 b and the discharge auxiliary electrode 47 c are covered with a dielectric 48 and a protective layer 49, respectively.
- a phosphor 46 and an address electrode are provided on the back glass substrate 41 between the partitions 45.
- the address electrode only needs to function so as to generate an address discharge with the sustain electrode 47, and its position and shape are arbitrary.
- a spiral shape is formed along the longitudinal direction of the discharge cell via a discharge auxiliary electrode 47c.
