Appeal No. 96-0541 Application 08/034,845 each electrode in said linear column conductor array being constituted by a furcated column conductor, oriented transverse to said linear row electrodes to define a plurality of rectangularly blocked sub-pixels for each said display pixel, the spacing between each linear row electrode in said linear row electrode array being greater than the spacing of said furcated row conductors, and the spacing between column electrodes in said linear column electrode array being greater than the spacing between said furcated column conductors to provide greater discrimination or contrast between each said display pixel, and high overall pixel brightness. 7. A high brightness AC plasma display device comprising: a) a first substrate having a first array of linear electrodes thereon, each electrode in said first array of linear electrodes being constituted by a plurality of parallel furcations connected to a common source of operating potentials, 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 3Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
