Abstract
A gas discharge device comprising a multiplicity of hollow gas filled Plasma-shells located on a substrate, each Plasma-shell being wholly or partially made of a first luminescent material, an exterior portion of each Plasma-shell containing a second luminescent material. The first luminescent material comprises an inorganic material or a combination of organic and inorganic materials. The second luminescent material comprises an organic material or a combination of organic and inorganic materials. Both the first and second luminescent materials may be the same material(s). The combination of organic and inorganic materials includes mixtures, suspensions, dispersions, layers, and coatings.
Claims18
A single substrate gas discharge device comprising a multiplicity of hollow gas filled Plasma-shells located on a single substrate, each Plasma-shell being made wholly or partially of a first luminescent material, an exterior portion of each Plasma-shell containing a second luminescent material, said first luminescent material being excited by photons from a gas discharge within the Plasma-shell, said second luminescent material being excited by photons emitted by the first luminescent material said first luminescent material comprising a combination of inorganic and organic materials.
A hollow gas filled Plasma-shell made wholly or partially of a first luminescent material, said Plasma-shell having an exterior portion that contains a second luminescent material, said first luminescent material comprising a combination of inorganic and organic materials.
