Method for manufacturing a light-emitting panel
View Patent ↗An improved light-emitting panel having a plurality of micro-components sandwiched between two subtrates is disclosed. Each micro-component contains a gas or gas-mixture capable of ionization when a sufficiently large voltage is supplied across the micro-component via at least two electrodes. An improved method of energizing a micro-component is also disclosed.
1. A method for manufacturing a light-emitting panel, comprising:
providing a substrate;
forming a plurality of sockets within the substrate;
placing a micro-component within each of the sockets, each micro-component emitting radiation where a trigger voltage is applied across the micro-component;
forming two electrodes for each of the micro-components; and
disposing an electrical enhancement on the substrate, the electrical enhancement for altering an electrical characteristic of the micro-components.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein disposing the electrical enhancement comprises providing the electrical enhancement for lowering an address voltage necessary to ionize a plasma-forming gas within the micro-components.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein disposing the electrical enhancement comprises providing the electrical enhancement for lowering a sustain voltage necessary to sustain an ionization charge in the micro-components.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein disposing the electrical enhancement comprises providing the electrical enhancement for increasing a luminosity transport efficiency of the micro-components.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein disposing the electrical enhancement comprises providing the electrical enhancement for increasing a radiation transport efficiency of the micro-components.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein disposing the electrical enhancement comprises providing the electrical enhancement for augmenting an energizing frequency of the micro-components.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein disposing the electrical enhancement comprises providing the electrical enhancement for altering power requirements necessary to energize the micro-components.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising individually controlling the electrical enhancement for each of the micro-components.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein individually controlling comprises controlling a luminosity of each of the micro-components.
10. The method of claim 8 , wherein individually controlling comprises controlling a frequency at which the micro-components emit radiation.
