Abstract

A high luminescence display, and methods for making such a display, are described. A faceplate for a display device having a glass face is provided, having phosphor elements on the glass face. There are reflective elements, on the glass face and adjacent to the phosphor elements, with surfaces angled toward the phosphor elements, whereby light emitted from the phosphor elements reflects off the reflective elements and travels through the glass face. The reflective elements may be formed of, for example, aluminum, and be directly adjacent to the phosphor, or offset from it.
