Close-up of an LCD, showing a dead green subpixel as a black rectangle A defective pixel or a dead pixel is a pixel on a liquid crystal display (LCD) that is not functioning properly. The ISO standard ISO 13406-2 distinguishes between three different types of defective pixels, [ 1 ] while hardware companies tend to have further distinguishing ...
Image persistence, or image retention, is a phenomenon in LCD and plasma displays where unwanted visual information is shown which corresponds to a previous state of the display. It is the flat-panel equivalent of screen burn-in. Unlike screen burn-in, the effects are usually temporary and often not visible without close inspection.
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. It is caused by ...
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 ...
Most use a fixed polarizing filter and a switching one, to block the undesired light. Many types of displays other than LCD generate their own light and do not require a backlight, for example, OLED displays, cathode-ray tube (CRT), and plasma (PDP) displays. A similar type of technology is called a frontlight, which illuminates an LCD from the ...
An LED backlight for a handheld LCD device. LCDs do not produce light on their own, so they require external light to produce a visible image. [82] [83] In a transmissive type of LCD, the light source is provided at the back of the glass stack and is called a backlight. Active-matrix LCDs are almost always backlit.
LG introduced a similar 'Motion 240' option on their 24GM77 gaming monitor; ULMB is a technique provided alongside Nvidia's G-Sync technology, and linked to the G-Sync monitor module. It is an alternative option to using G-Sync (and cannot be used at the same time), offering the user instead an "Ultra Low Motion Blur" mode.
A Pixel Qi screen installed in an OLPC XO laptop operating in transmissive mode. The screen is in color mode and is retro-illuminated. A transflective liquid-crystal display [1] is a liquid-crystal display (LCD) with an optical layer that reflects and transmits light (transflective is a portmanteau of transmissive and reflective).
