LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAYS(LCDs)

  • Published : 1998.10.01

Abstract

The current status of flat panel display (FPD) technologies is outlined, with emphasis on liquid crystal displays(LCDs). The principles of a number of LCDs are explained and compared with alternative technologies on the flat panel market. Recently annuounced LCDs, their structures, and their underlying technologies are summarized and compared.
