Abstract
An improved light-emitting panel having a plurality of micro-components sandwiched between two substrates is disclosed. Each micro-component contains a gas or gas-mixture capable of ionization when a sufficiently large voltage is supplied across the micro-component via at least two electrodes. An improved method of manufacturing a light-emitting panel is also disclosed, which uses a web fabrication process to manufacturing light-emitting displays as part of a high-speed, continuous inline process.
Claims4
A web fabrication process for manufacturing a plurality of light-emitting panels, comprising:
- providing a first substrate comprising a plurality of channels;
- and
- weaving a single micro-component through the plurality of channels, the micro-component having a cylindrical shape and emitting radiation when exposed to a trigger voltage.
