Abstract:
The invention concerns a plasma panel display wherein the coplanar faceplate of the display panel comprising electrode triads including each two opposite side electrodes and a central electrode, and wherein during sustain operations by application of a series of sustain voltage pulses between the electrode triads, the central electrode always acts as anode. Such an arrangement, and preferably at an adapted width of the central electrode, enables to enhance substantially the luminous efficacy of the display panel.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a faceplate comprising, for each discharge zone, at least two electrode elements having an axis of symmetry Ox and which are adapted such that the surface potential V(x) measured at the dielectric layer surface covering said elements increases, away from the edge of the discharge elements, continuously or discontinuously, without decreasing portion, when a constant potential difference is applied between the two electrodes serving said discharge zone, thereby substantially enhancing the panel luminous efficacy.
Abstract:
A display panel provided with at least two arrays of coplanar electrodes Y, Y′ and a network of address electrodes X is described. The network of address electrodes X is formed between the plates bearing these electrodes and has a two-dimensional set of elementary discharge regions. Each elementary discharge region is subdivided into two matrix discharge regions, each located at the intersection of one Y of the coplanar electrodes and of the address electrode X and one coplanar discharge region between the coplanar electrodes Y, Y′. Each matrix discharge region is located closer to the external edge than the internal edge of the coplanar electrode Y with which the matrix discharge region is associated.
Abstract:
According to this method, before a high-frequency pulse train is applied between the two electrodes of a pair carried by one plate, at least one sustain pulse is applied between an electrode of this pair and an electrode of another plate of the panel. As the sustain discharges are not generated between the same electrodes as the stabilized discharges, the electrodes may be moved further apart so as to lower the stabilization frequency without thereby having to increase the sustain voltages.
Abstract:
Display panel comprising two plates, separated by a gas-filled space partitioned by separating elements forming an array of barrier ribs, and arrays of coplanar sustain electrodes and address electrodes; with each cell subdivided into a trigger zone at each of the intersections of an address electrode with a sustain electrode and into at least one coplanar discharge expansion zone that extends between the trigger zones the array of barrier ribs is designed so that, in each cell, each coplanar expansion zone has a width that is less than the width of all the trigger zones. By applying a method of driving the sustain discharges in the display panel by matrix triggering, the luminous efficiency is very substantially improved.

Abstract:
Panel comprising an array of barrier ribs each having a base resting on a plate and a top in contact with another plate that includes at least two arrays of coplanar electrodes each preferably having a constant width. According to the invention, these barrier ribs have, at their top, a low-permittivity region of thickness greater than 3 μm and less than or equal to one fifth of their total height, which has a mean dielectric permittivity at least three times smaller than the dielectric permittivity of these barrier ribs measured at their base. Thanks to the invention, the confinement of the plasma discharges far from the barrier ribs is substantially improved.

The invention concerns a display panel comprising a front faceplate and a rear faceplate providing between them a two-dimensional matrix of zones filled with discharge gas, addressing means for selectively activating pre-selected discharge zones by depositing therein electric charges, and a device for generating microwave electromagnetic radiation adapted to apply through the rear faceplate to the assembly of the display panel discharge zones, a microwave radiation of sufficient intensity to generate plasma discharges solely in the activated discharge zones. Thus, an easy-to-monitor panel with high luminous efficacy is obtained wherein the addressing and maintenance functions are separate.
