ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a gas discharge flat panel display created out of a substrate and a glass sheet. Light generating phosphors are disposed upon a plane surface of the glass sheet. The substrate contains pits matching the locations of the disposed phosphors, each pit containing upstanding firing points connected to conductive traces. The conductive traces are used to generate a high electric field at the firing points. The glass sheet is located over the substrate and a gas at or near atmospheric pressure is trapped in the pits between the glass and the substrate. The gas ionizes when the firing points are electrified and the energy given off by the gas excites the phosphors giving off light.
