Abstract

Abstract A substrate assembly for a fluorescent or phosphorescent display panel comprises segmented electrodes, for deposition thereon of masses of a fluorescent or phosphorescent material, respectively, on electroconductive leads disposed on a substrate of an electrically insulating material, such as glass or ceramics. Each segmented electrode comprises graphite powder bound into a mass by a zinc oxide containing vitreous material that does not substantially include lead. The segmented electrode may consist of an intermediate layer placed on each electroconductive lead and a segmented layer disposed on the intermediate layer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 111 words
In a substrate assembly for a luminescent display panel comprising a substrate of an electrically insulating material, a plurality of electroconductive leads on said substrate and segmented electrodes coupled to said leads, the improvement wherein: each of said segmented electrodes is formed of a fired zinc oxide-containing vitreous material with graphite powder bound therein, the composition of said segmented electrodes comprising by weight about 40% to 70% graphite with 30% to 60% of the vitreous material making up essentially the balance, the amount of zinc oxide in said vitreous material ranging from about 30% to 40% by weight of the vitreous material, the lead content not exceeding about 0.1% by weight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 111 words
In a substrate assembly for a luminescent display panel comprising a substrate of an electrically insulating material, a plurality of electroconductive leads on said substrate and segmented electrodes coupled to said leads, the improvement wherein: each of said segmented electrodes is formed of a fired zinc oxide-containing vitreous material with graphite powder bound therein, the composition of said segmented electrodes comprising by weight about 40% to 70% graphite with 30% to 60% of the vitreous material making up essentially the balance, the amount of zinc oxide in said vitreous material ranging from about 30% to 40% by weight of the vitreous material, the lead content not exceeding about 0.1% by weight.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
The substrate assembly of claim 1, wherein said vitreous material contains about 35% by weight of zinc oxide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 76 words
The substrate assembly of claim 1, said assembly also comprising a film of an insulating material on said substrate and on peripheral portions of said electroconductive leads, said film having through holes at central portions of said electroconductive leads, wherein said segmented electrodes comprise intermediate layers in said through holes and on said central portions and segmented layers on said intermediate layers and on those portions of said film which are contiguous to said through holes.
