Abstract
Plasma-shells filled with ionizable gas are positioned on or within a rigid or flexible substrate. Each Plasma-shell is electrically connected to at least two electrical conductors such as electrodes with an electrically conductive bonding substance to form an electrical connection to each electrode. The electrically conductive bonding substance may comprise a pad connected to both the Plasma-shell and an electrode.
Claims26
In a method for placing at least one Plasma-shell on a substrate having at least two electrodes to be electrically connected to each Plasma-shell, each Plasma-shell being located within a cavity on the substrate, the improvement wherein an electrically conductive bonding substance is applied to each Plasma-shell so as to form an electrical connection to each electrode.
In a method for placing at least one Plasma-shell on a substrate having at least two electrodes to be electrically connected to each Plasma-shell, the improvement wherein each said electrode is electrically connected to a Plasma-shell by a pad composed of an electrically conductive bonding substance, each connecting pad to each Plasma-shell being separated from each other pad to each Plasma-shell by a clearance space so as to prevent the flow of electrically conductive bonding substance from one pad to another.
In a display device comprising at least one Plasma-shell positioned on a substrate with at least two electrodes electrically connected to each Plasma-shell, the improvement wherein each said electrode is electrically connected to a Plasma-shell by an electrical connection composed of an electrically conductive bonding substance, each said electrical connection being separated from each other electrical connection to the Plasma-shell by a clearance space to prevent the flow and wicking of the electrically conductive bonding substance from one connection to another.
As an article of manufacture, a substrate having at least one Plasma-shell positioned on the substrate with at least two conductors electrically connected to each Plasma-shell, each conductor being electrically connected to a Plasma-shell by an electrical connection comprising an electrically conductive bonding substance, each said electrical connection being separated from each other electrical connection to the Plasma-shell by a clearance space to prevent the flow and wicking of the electrically conductive bonding substance from one connection to another.
