1. A light-emitting panel comprising:
- a substrate containing a plurality of cavities arranged in a pre-determined pattern, the pre-determined pattern consists of a plurality of groups of cavities, wherein the plurality of groups of cavities are uniformly spaced, one from another, within the substrate;
at least three cavities uniformly spaced one from another forming each of the plurality of groups of cavities; and
a micro-component having ionizable gas therein within each of the at least three cavities, wherein each of the micro-components within each of the at least three cavities emits visible radiation at a different wavelength in response to an application of a voltage thereto.

Abstract
An improved light-emitting panel having a plurality of micro-components at least partially disposed in a socket and sandwiched between two substrates is disclosed. Each micro-component contains a gas or gas-mixture capable of ionization when a sufficiently large voltage is supplied across the micro-component via at least two electrodes.
