Claims3
A gas discharge panel comprising an insulating base plate and a transparent insulating top plate, a set of parallel conductors which are insulated from each other in each plate and which cross each other at an angle, said conductors being spaced at the crossings to define cavities which are filled with an ionizable gas in which a gas discharge can occur, the electrodes of one of said sets constituting cathodes being positioned in grooves and are secured to the insulating plate throughout their length by means of a low softening-point glass enamel.
