Abstract:
A flat-panel gas discharge display operable with either alternating or direct current is free of implosive forces because it operates at substantially atmospheric pressure. The display comprises a first set of conductors disposed on a transparant substrate and a second set of conductors crossing over the first set at a distance therefrom. An array of crosspoints is formed at each location where a conductor of the second set crosses over a conductor of the first set. A gas is contained in the space between the sets of conductors at each crosspoint. The gas will undergo light emissive discharge when a Paschen minimum firing voltage is applied to the pair of crossed conductors crossing at that crosspoint. Air may be used as the operative gas. The display may be formed on a single side of the substrate. At least one of the sets of conductors may be provided with an aperture at each of the crosspoints to facilitate viewing the discharge. A system incorporating the flat-panel display is described.
Abstract:
A plasma display device is provided with one substrate having a plurality of electrode drawing-out portions extending up to a side end thereof for applying an AC voltage to X side electrodes each independently, a second substrate having a plurality of electrode terminal portions formed independently on its electrode-disposed surface, the plural electrode terminal portions being electrically connected respectively to the plural electrode drawing-out portions by a connector portion. The connection of each of the X and Y electrodes with an external power source can thus be made on only the Y side electrode-disposed surface of the second substrate. Besides, the shape of the substrates is simplified.
Abstract:
A method of fabricating a display panel on a substrate material of soda-lime float glass. A dielectric layer composed of a mixture of lead, silicon and aluminum is deposited on the substrate to a thickness of from 25 to 150 microns. A masking pattern is defined on the surface of the dielectric layer where plasma display cavities are to be formed. Openings are etched in the dielectric layer with fluoboric acid to geometries no larger than approximately 0.15 mm wide by 0.15 mm thick at regions defined by the masking pattern, the openings extending to the major surface of the substrate and forming a plasma display cavity. A cover is provided over the cavity to form an enclosed envelope containing a noble gas. A phosphor is provided in the plasma display cavity together with electrodes adjacent to the cavity for ionizing the gas and exciting the phosphor.

Abstract:
A plasma display panel (PDP) includes an EMI filter supported by a glass substrate for blocking/shielding substantial amounts of electromagnetic waves, with the filter being supported by a side of the substrate opposite a viewer. In certain example embodiments, a black frit and a silver frit comprise a filter frame and are supported by the filter such that the filter is closer to the glass substrate than either or both of the frits. Alternatively, in certain example embodiments, a conductive black frit comprises a filter frame and is supported by the filter such that the filter is closer to the glass substrate than the frit. The filter has high visible transmission, and is capable of blocking/shielding electromagnetic waves. Advantageously, a transparent conductive coating (TCC) can be coated on a stock, non-cut glass sheet.

Abstract:
Some embodiments include methods of forming plasma-generating microstructures. Aluminum may be anodized to form an aluminum oxide body having a plurality of openings extending therethrough. Conductive liners may be formed within the openings, and circuitry may be formed to control current flow through the conductive liners. The conductive liners form a plurality of hollow cathodes, and the current flow is configured to generate and maintain plasmas within the hollow cathodes. The plasmas within various hollow cathodes, or sets of hollow cathodes, may be independently controlled. Such independently controlled plasmas may be utilized to create a pattern in a display, or on a substrate. In some embodiments, the plasmas may be utilized for plasma-assisted etching and/or plasma-assisted deposition. Some embodiments include constructions and assemblies containing multiple plasma-generating structures.
