  • Patent number: 4195892
    Abstract: A batch fabrication process to produce plasma display panels uses a multiple processing technique in which a series of individual plate patterns are simultaneously developed on a large master plate. When the master plate processing is completed and inspected, individual plates with associated tubulation members are provided and placed over the individual non-defective plate patterns on the master plate and sealed. The master plate is then divided into individual plates by conventional glass separation techniques such as cutting, scribing, etc. and the individual panels thus formed are completed by bakeout, backfill with an ionizable gas and tubulation tip-off. This permits plasma display panel fabrication in a batch mode using conventional fabrication techniques, permitting multiple plasma panel fabrications in a single process cycle.
