Plasma display panel having display and counter conductors on one plate

摘要: A plasma display panel of the gas discharge type comprising a plurality discrete electrically excitable gas-containing cells. Associated with each cell is conductor array segments and corresponding common all positioned on same surface. transparent dielectric film deposited over segment conductor, so that conductors are capacitively coupled, but physically isolated from gas. particular character displayed device by alternately energizing selected one conductor. The immediately adjacent energized ionized, resulting illumination which visible to human eye. confined area circumscribed In order conceal generated mask provided contains openings generally conforming in shape segmented aligned occurrence ionization sufficient for visual numeric, symbolic, alphabetic information. hermetically sealed prevent escape any into atmosphere.
