2 Introduction: 元朗 Electrical Grids Yuen Long in 1960 s 祠堂 Village shrine

3 Display Technologies & Status Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Plasma Display (PDP) Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) Electrophoretic Display (E book) Others Vanishing Dominating Shrinking Emerging Rapidly growing Gone or to be recycled Some historical milestones

4 Cathode Ray (indicator) Tube CRT Karl F. Braun Built in 1897 Deflection of electron beam Electron beam striking a luminescent screen produces indicator light Nobel Prize 1909 for inventing telegraph

5 Today s colored CRT TV Today s PDP CRT TV Chevallier, 1929 Patterned phosphor screen Sweeping single e beam CRT depth ~ Screen size Bulky and heavy First Pattern 42 Full phosphor Color PDP TV screen was produced Multiple in localized 1996 (Fujitsu) excitation Screen is depth independent Thin and light

6 Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Discoveries at the RCA Sarnoff Laboratories: 1962: R. Williams discovered the phenomenon of Williams Domains in nematic LC 1968: G. Heilmeir demonstrated dynamic scattering LCD clock 1970: First LCD Watch by Optel Domains in liquid crystals with an applied field of 2,500 V/cm

7 Twisted nematic liquid crystals M. Schadt and W. Helfrich LC materials Hoffmann La Roche Appl. Phys. Lett. 18, 127 (1971) Cyanobiphenyls (1972) G. Gray, J. Nash and K. Harrison Electro optical effect allowing variations of the rotation of linearly polarized light continuously from 0 to 90.
