Disclosed is a plasma display panel, which includes a back base plate wherein a plurality of orientation electrodes and the interlayers are formed, and a front base plate opposed to the back base plate wherein a plurality of scanning electrodes and the maintaining electrodes are formed. The scanning auxiliary electrode and the maintaining auxiliary electrodes are formed between the scanning electrodes and the maintaining electrodes. The scanning auxiliary electrode and the maintaining auxiliary electrodes extrude alternately from the opposite electrodes of the scanning electrodes and the maintaining electrodes, thereby, the initial discharge voltage of the plasma display panel is reduced and the time jitter characteristic of the electron liberation is reduced when the plasma discharges. Atthe same time, the number of the discharge is increased, and the discharge diffuse is comparatively smooth in the discharge field to advance the discharge efficiency, thereby, the brightness in the discharge cell is increased.
