<p>In an A.C. multicolour gaseous discharge display panel, a layer (7) of electroluminescent phosphor material is used as the dielectric layer overlying the conductors (3A, 3B...) of an array on one glass substrate (1). A layer (5) of n-type semiconductor material is interposed between the conductors (3A, 3C...) and the phosphor dielectric layer (7) at selected discharge sites to reduce the electroluminescent voltage threshold. A refractory layer (9) is used to protect the phosphor against ion bombardment during discharge. A discharge at a selected site causes the phosphor to emit litht of higher intensity than, and different colour to, that of the gas discharge. At sites without semiconductor material, the light emitted is that of the gas discharge.</p> |
