ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed the transfer of a gaseous discharge within a display/memory device. There is particularly disclosed a method for conditioning a multiple gaseous discharge display/memory device having an electrical memory and capable of producing a visual display, the device being characterized by an ionizable gaseous medium in a gas chamber formed by a pair of opposed dielectric material charge storage members which are respectively backed by a series of parallel-like conductor (electrode) members, the conductor members behind each dielectric material member being transversely oriented with respect to the conductor members behind the opposing dielectric material member so as to define a plurality of discrete discharge volumes, each of which constitutes a discharge unit. The conditioning of the device comprises the combined use of a pilot unit and a pre-address voltage signal so as to supply free electrons to each discrete volume or unit in order that a discharge can be initiated when such conditioned unit is addressed.
