Method for assembling metal printed conductors as electrodes on a channel plate for ultrawide flat screens

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Modern ultrawide flat screens known as PDPs and PALCs have a glass plate with a micro-channel structure and an address electrode in each channel. Until now address electrodes have been mounted using printing techniques or by direct selective sputtering in accordance with channel structure or indirectly by means of selective etching of large-surface metal layers deposited with no external current and/or galvanically leaving the printed conductor structures in place. In order to avoid the disadvantages of said known methods the , invention provides that the metal printed conductors of the address electrodes be mounted selectively in the electrode areas solely using a deposition method …
