PLASMA DISPLAY DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

The plasma display has a chamber (17) retaining a gas, which is excited to emit visible light, in combination with a phosphorescent layer (18) that emits light when excited by ultraviolet light from the discharge. A uniformly distributed electric field (E) ignites the discharge, and a matrix of control elements (19) locally modulates the electric field to selectively illuminate screen points.
