Everything About LCD Monitor

TFT-LCD is an abbreviation of thin film transistor liquid crystal display. This technology first came about in the 1960’s and continued to undergo substantial modifications until it began to be used for mass-production of laptops and notebook computers in 1991.

A TFT-LCD panel makes use of liquid crystals to control the amount of light that passes through. A basic LCD panel involves two glass panels with a layer of liquid crystal in between. The front glass panel contains a color filter while the back glass panel has transistors attached to it. The liquid crystal gets bent when voltage is applied through the transistors, and light is allowed to pass through and form a pixel. LCD panels contain a light source behind it. The color filter in the front glass panel gives the pixels their own color, and a combination of the pixels forms the image on the screen.
