Abstract
A luminous gas discharge display including at least two opposing hermetically sealed plates. At least one of the plates is formed of a transparent material and cooperatively forms with at least one other plate at least one channel. The channel contains an ionizable gas to define a gas discharge path. The display further includes at least one pair of electrodes in communication with the at least one channel. At least one of the electrodes is a flat electrode positioned internally between the plates and includes a conductive material deposited on the channel and extending from the channel to outside the periphery of the display to provide electrical contact between a voltage source and the ionizable gas to produce a gas discharge display.
