But what makes plasma TVs different is that each subpixel is individually controlled by “advanced electronics” to produce over 16 million colors. The charged gas then strikes red, green, and blue phosphors — the same color trio that account for the variety of hues found on all cathode-ray tube devices, such as conventional televisions and hd plasma television computer monitors. The gas is electrically charged at specific intervals when the Plasma set is in use. Within each cell two glass panels are separated by a narrow gap in which neon-xenon gas is injected and sealed in plasma form during the manufacturing process. The display itself consists of cells.
