Plasma displays are made of thousands of tiny cells, three for each pixel that makes up the image. Three are used to mix red, green and blue light together to create the color required.
Inside each cell is a low pressure gas. When the gas has a voltage applied across it, it changes state from a gas to a plasma. Plasma is known as the fourth state of matter (the other three being solids, liquids and gases). Plasma can also be formed at extremely high temperatures such as in the sun. A plasma in a television is at a much lower temperature.
When electrical energy is passed into the cell, the plasma releases photons of ultra-violet light. The UV light strikes the front of the cell which has a phosphor coating. The phosphor then glows red, green or blue depending on the composition of the phosphor coating and so produces the colored light that we see as an image.

∙ 13y agoPlasma televisions use a low pressure gas in each cell that makes up the screen. When the gas is charged electrically, it changes from a gas into a plasma state. In this state, it becomes very conductive and it is this state that assists in making the colored phosphors glow at the front of each cell.
When all the cells are seen together, we see a full color image.

What is plasma in plasma tv?
The plasma in plasma TV is actually real plasma. Many people tend to think that plasma is something made up by science fiction novels, but it's actually closer to home then you might think. plasma is a state of matter like a solid, liquid or gas but with different properties. It is best described as being similar to gas, but is not exactly the same. The reason why plasma is used in televisions is because it can be manipulated into showing different colours. Plasma is matter heated to roughly 10,000 degrees and so if you pause an image on a plasma screen TV and leave on for a long time it will begin to burn into your TV. Plasma is often commonly found in households as it is used in light bulbs.
