A team at the University of Colorado Boulder has designed new kinds of liquid crystals that mirror the complex structures of some solid crystals—a major step forward in building flowing materials that ...

Check out the latest liquid-crystal display monitors. They come big-screen (19-plus inches) with high-resolution (at least 1,600- by 1,200-pixel) flat panel displays. They don't come cheap, but ...

Current generation portable computers and instruments utilize back-lit liquid crystal displays (LCDs). Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps (CCFLs) provide the highest available efficiency for backlighting ...

Kaiser Electronics is developing a new multifunction F-22 cockpit display that uses rear projection rather than liquid crystal technology - the first such display for any aircraft, according to the ...

Liquid crystals are all around us, from cell phone screens and video game consoles to car dashboards and medical devices. Run an electric current through liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and they ...

Holographic 3D display completely avoids the side effects of the traditional 3D display, such as the dizziness and fatigue of viewers. Therefore, it has become the frontier and hotspot of the current ...

A new technique to change the structure of liquid crystals could lead to the development of fast-responding liquid crystals suitable for next generation displays -- 3D, augmented and virtual reality - ...

Airbus plans to offer a liquid crystal display HUD on all of its in-production aircraft types. The head-up display was recently certified on the A318 and A318 Elite corporate jet, and will be offered ...
