An imaging system, comprising:
- an image transfer structure configured to image-wise apply marking material to a substrate;
- and
- a flash lamp configured to fuse the marking material to the substrate, the flash lamp including:
- a plurality of flash lamp pixels, each flash lamp pixel including:
- a transparent first electrode;
- a cell including a gas coupled to the transparent first electrode;
- and
- a second electrode having a non-uniform surface coupled to the cell.

A method of imaging using a flash lamp, comprising a plurality of pixels, each pixel including a transparent first electrode;
- a cell including a gas;
- and a second electrode having
- a non-uniform surface, the method comprising:
- image-wise depositing marking material on a substrate;
- and
- image-wise irradiating the substrate to fuse the marking material to the substrate by image-wise discharging current through the cells.
