A liquid-crystal display (LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronically modulated optical device that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals combined with polarizers to display information. Liquid crystals do not emit light directly [1] but instead use a backlight or reflector to produce images in color or monochrome. [2]

They invested in developing LCD, flat-screen TV displays. And they created new ceramic filters to trap smog and exhaust from trucks. Five years later, they got their next big break.
