  2. Flicker (screen) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_(screen)

    The flicker of a CRT monitor can cause various symptoms in those sensitive to it such as eye strain, headaches [9] in migraine sufferers, and seizures in epileptics. [10]As the flicker is most clearly seen at the edge of our vision there is no obvious risk in using a CRT, but prolonged use can cause a sort of retinal shock where the flickering is seen even when looking away from the monitor.

  3. Image persistence - Wikipedia

    Detail of a TFT display showing whole screen persistence artifacts TFT display showing persistence artifacts Image persistence on a BenQ GW2765HT IPS LCD monitor. 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.

  4. Backlight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlight

    If the frequency of the pulse-width modulation is too low or the user is very sensitive to flicker, this may cause discomfort and eye-strain, similar to the flicker of CRT displays. [27] [28] This can be tested by a user simply by waving a hand or object in front of the screen. If the object appears to have sharply defined edges as it moves ...

    In January 2013 Lenovo announced the ThinkVision LT1423p, a mobile touchscreen display designed for use with Microsoft's Windows 8 operating system. The LT1423p is a 13.3-inch AH-IPS display with 1600x900 resolution. The face of the device is Gorilla Glass in order to make it more durable. Pen-based and multitouch finger-based input are both ...

  6. Liquid-crystal display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-crystal_display

    An LCD screen used as a notification panel for travellers. Each pixel of an LCD typically consists of a layer of molecules aligned between two transparent electrodes, often made of indium tin oxide (ITO) and two polarizing filters (parallel and perpendicular polarizers), the axes of transmission of which are (in most of the cases) perpendicular to each other.

  7. Refresh rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refresh_rate

    However, this does not apply to LCD monitors. The closest equivalent to a refresh rate on an LCD monitor is its frame rate, which is often locked at 60 fps. But this is rarely a problem, because the only part of an LCD monitor that could produce CRT-like flicker—its backlight—typically operates at around a minimum of 200 Hz.

  8. TFT LCD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TFT_LCD

    The silicon layer for TFT-LCDs is typically deposited using the PECVD process. [11] Transistors take up only a small fraction of the area of each pixel and the rest of the silicon film is etched away to allow light to easily pass through it. Polycrystalline silicon is sometimes used in displays that require higher TFT performance. Examples ...

  9. Defective pixel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defective_pixel

    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.
