To generate white light best suited as an LCD backlight, parts of the light of a blue-emitting LED are transformed by quantum dots into small-bandwidth green and red light such that the combined white light allows a nearly ideal color gamut to be generated by the RGB color filters of the LCD panel. The quantum dots may be in a separate layer as ...
Burn-in on a monitor, when severe as in this "please wait" message, is visible even when the monitor is switched off. Screen burn-in, image burn-in, ghost image, or shadow image, is a permanent discoloration of areas on an electronic visual display such as a cathode-ray tube (CRT) in an older computer monitor or television set.
LED backlighting in color screens comes in two varieties: white LED backlights and RGB LED backlights. [10] White LEDs are used most often in notebook computers and desktop screens, and make up virtually all mobile LCD screens. A white LED is typically a blue LED with broad spectrum yellow phosphor to result in the emission of white light ...
The key to reducing motion blur lies in decreasing the time the pixel stay illuminated. On liquid-crystal displays, this can be accomplished by strobing the backlight, whereas on OLEDs, this must be done by rapidly turning the pixels on and off, made possible by the fact that OLEDs have response times far shorter than those of LCDs.
Since computer screen images usually have full white somewhere in the image, the backlight will usually be at full intensity, making this "feature" mostly a marketing gimmick for computer monitors, however for TV screens it drastically increases the perceived contrast ratio and dynamic range, improves the viewing angle dependency and ...
In some cases, a manufacturer sends all screens to sale then replaces the screen if the customer reports the unit as faulty and the defective pixels meet their minimum requirements for return. [1] Some screens come with a leaflet stating how many dead pixels they are allowed to have before the owner can send them back to the manufacturer.
A screensaver (or screen saver) is a computer program that blanks the display screen or fills it with moving images or patterns when the computer has been idle for a designated time. The original purpose of screensavers was to prevent phosphor burn-in on CRT or plasma computer monitors (hence the name). [ 1 ]
In spite of LCD's dominance of the television field, other technologies continued to be developed to address its shortcomings. Whereas LCDs produce an image by selectively blocking a backlight, organic LED, microLED, field-emission display and surface-conduction electron-emitter display technologies all produce an illuminated image directly. In ...
