LCD（Liquid Crystal Display）
Liquid Crystal Display is a display that consists of two polarizing transparent panels and a liquid crystal surface sandwiched in between. Voltage is applied to certain areas, causing the crystal to turn dark. A light source behind the panel transmits through transparent crystals and is mostly blocked by dark crystals.
 
STN-LCD (Super Twisted Nametic)
A passive matrix LCD technology that provides better contrast than twisted nematic (TN) by twisting the molecules from 180 to 270 degrees. Used extensively on earlier laptops for monochrome and color displays. DSTN and FSTN provide improvements over straight STN. Passive displays have improved immensely, but do not provide wide viewing angle, and submarine is generally noticeable.
 
HTPS (High Temperature Poly-Silicon)
HTPS is fabrication of poly-crystalline silicon through high temperature (>900C) processing steps. This process is used to make small thin film transistor-active matrix liquid crystal displays (TFT-LCDs) for projection displays, and requires the use of a synthetic quartz substrate.
 
LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon)
LCOS is a technology that has been highly touted for high-definition television monitors with screen resolutions of 1920 horizontal x 1080 vertical. In theory, LCOS can produce even higher resolutions and superb images.
LCOS is a brand new break through in hi-definition display products. The use of LCOS technology has enabled the production of HDTV with high luminance, bright color and effectively no pollution in the manufacturing process.  
 
FED (Field Emission Display)
FED is a new type of flat-panel display in which electron emitters, arranged in a grid, are individually controlled by "cold" cathodes to generate colored light. Field emission display technology makes possible the thin panel of today's LCD, offers a wider field-of-view, provides the high image quality of today's CRT displays, and requires less power than today's CRT displays.
 
Backlight
Backlights that are attached to LCD displays represents as lights in order to be seen at night. They come in many varieties, like white and blue or green. White lights are usually small light bulbs attached to the side of the display, and are not homogenically distributed. Blue or green lights is produced by a paper on the back of the display and homogenically distributed.
 
Resolution
The measurement of computer screen or projected image is measured by the number of pixels wide times the number of pixel high. More pixels per unit of area produce a higher resolution giving more detail in the display of an image.

Example： VGA (Video Graphic Array): 640 pixels (W) x 480 pixels (H)
　　　　  　 SVGA (Super VGA): 800 pixels (W) x 600 pixels (H)
　　　　 　  XGA (eXtended GA) : 1024 pixels (W) x 768 pixels (H)
　　　　 　  SXGA (Super XGA) : 1280 pixels (W) x 1024 pixels (H)
