-Nixie tubes and some early flat panel monochrome screens both use similar technology.  They rely on gases being exited into a plasma state by high voltage and emitting visible light.  Later 'plasma' colour TV screens use a similar discharge to produce ultra-violet light that then excites coloured phosphurs (red/green/blue) to produce coloured pixels.+Nixie tubes and some early flat panel monochrome screens both use similar technology.  They rely on gases being excited into a plasma state by high voltage and emitting visible light.  Later 'plasma' colour TV screens use a similar discharge to produce ultra-violet light that then excites coloured phosphurs (red/green/blue) to produce coloured pixels.
