Abstract: A d.c. gas-discharge display device has gas-discharge display panel including hot cathodes inserted in a thermal electron generating space, an insulating plate having holes as discharge-glow spaces and on one surface thereof grid electrodes with holes for penetration of thermal electrons and on another surface thereof anode electrodes, and gas, metallic vapor on a mixture thereof, which fills the space in the display panel and forms an envelope. A voltage generator supplies the cathodes with a potential to provide thermal electrons. A first pulse generator supplies the grid electrodes with a pulse having a pulse height higher than V.sub.ON and being biased by a d.c. voltage lower than V.sub.OFF.A second pulse generator supplies the anode electrodes with a positive pulse having a pulse height higher than the ionization voltage of the gas, metallic vapor or mixture and being biased by a d.c. voltage between ground level and the ionization voltage. The discharge glow in each discharge hole is thus turned on during the time the pulse applied to the grid electrode coincides with the pulse applied to the anode electrode.

Abstract: A display device having a screen is provided in which a back-plate is sealed to the screen to form an evacuated chamber. An area cathode is disposed between the back-plate and the screen. A permanent magnet is disposed between the cathode and the screen. A two dimensional array of rows and columns of channels extends between opposite poles of the magnet for receiving electrons from the cathode. An anode phosphor layer is disposed between the screen and the magnet for receiving electrons from the channels. A grid electrode between the area cathode and the magnet controls flow of electrons from the cathode into the channels, whereas an anode between the magnet and the anode phosphor layer controls flow of electrons from the channels towards the screen. In a preferred embodiment, the cathode means comprises the backplate and a silica glass substrate peripherally sealed to the back-plate to produce a chamber in which a gas is contained. A layer of photo-sensitive material is disposed on the surface of the substrate external to the chamber. A cathode phosphor layer is disposed between the back-plate and the substrate. A pair of electrodes facing each other from opposite sides of the chamber energizes the gas to generate a plasma for exciting the phosphor to generate light energy to produce electron emissions from the photo-cathode.

Abstract: A gas-discharge display device for multi-colored data display in three basic colors, comprising a gas-filled, gas-tight enclosure, a board-like matrix control structure, dividing the enclosure into two chambers, which is in the form of an insulating plate having a plurality of apertures therethrough, arranged in an array of coordinate lines corresponding in number to a desired number of image points. A plasma electrode is disposed in one chamber and a luminescent screen electrode disposed in the other chamber. The control structure includes a plurality of anode conductors disposed on the side of said plate facing said plasma electrode, and a plurality of control conductors disposed on the side of said plate facing said luminescent screen electrode, with each of the conductors extending around the edges of the associated apertures. The plasma electrode is so disposed that, upon application of appropriate potentials, a gas discharge can burn in the discharge chamber, while the luminescent screen electrode is disposed sufficiently close to the adjacent conductors on the matrix member that even a few kV applied to such screen electrode cannot trigger any undesired gas discharge. The anode conductors each contain a corresponding line of apertures with each three successive apertures being allotted to the three basic colors, and each third aperture being allotted to the same basic color. Each control conductor interconnects each successive aperture along the line in which such conductor extends, and each of the latter may include apertures allotted to two of the three basic colors.

Each of the conductors extend around the edges of the associated apertures, with each of the conductors on one side being associated with a row of apertures, and each of the conductors on the other side being associated with a column of apertures. The cathode electrode is so disposed that a gas discharge can burn in the discharge chamber, and the luminescent screen electrode is disposed sufficiently close to the adjacent conductors on the matrix member, that even a few kV applied to such screen electrode cannot trigger any undesired gas discharge, with the effective size of the apertures in the control conductors adjacent the screen electrode being less than that of the corresponding apertures in the anode conductors adjacent the cathode electrode. The apertures preferably are elongated, for example oval or slot-shaped, and the holes in the control electrodes may be provided with cross bars subdividing such apertures. Various supporting structures for maintaining the components in rigid operation positions may be provided.
