Abstract
A display panel includes one or more character display positions, each of which comprises a cathode, an anode, and an array of anodic display elements. The display elements comprise conductive phosphor segments which can be energized in different combinations to emit light and display a character. In operation of the panel, the cathode and anode are connected in an operating circuit, and then selected phosphor segments are energized by information signals to transfer electrons thereto and to display a character.
