Solutions: LCD - Liquid Crystal Display: LCD is an abbreviation for Liquid Crystal Display. An LCD is a display using liquid crystal sealed between two pieces of glass and polarizers then activated by an external light source to form the various characters, as on a digital watch or portable computer. Some LCD monitors depend on the reflection of ambient light to present an image on the screen; others increase readability by super-twisting and backlighting the screen. The most promising type of LCD is the recently developed active-matrix or thin-film transistor (TFT) LCD. Within a few years, we should see 9 and 11 inch advanced-matrix LCD monitors, monochrome and color. This definition was taken from the public domain program named PC-Glossary.
