                    display pixel, and high overall pixel

                    said first array of linear electrodes being                       
                    constituted by a plurality of parallel                            
                    furcations connected to a common source of

                    b) a first dielectric layer on said first array                   
                    of linear electrodes,                                             
                    c) a plurality of linear non-conductive barriers                  
                    formed in spaced array on said first dielectric                   
                    layer and parallel to said plurality of parallel                  
                    furcations, to define a plurality of discharge                    
                    channels aligned with said linear electrode                       
                    array, there being at least two discharge                         
                    channels for each electrode in said first array                   
                    of linear electrodes and at least one furcation                   
                    of an electrode aligned with each said at least
