  • Abstract
    The LCD is an antique technology by almost any measure. Liquid crystal material was first discovered in Austria in 1888, about 10 years before the invention of the cathode-ray tube. The first liquid crystal displays-in wristwatches-go back to the early 1970s. Today, we can make LCD flat-panel displays with diagonals of 70 inches or more. And yet we´ve hardly scratched the surface, so to speak, of what the technology can do.
