  2. Comparison of CRT, LCD, plasma, and OLED displays - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_CRT,_LCD...

    For the majority of images it will consume 60–80% of the power of an LCD. OLED displays use 40% of the power of an LCD displaying an image that is primarily black as they lack the need for a backlight, [39] while OLED can use more than three times as much power to display a mostly white image compared to an LCD. [40]

  3. Refresh rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refresh_rate

    Refresh rate. The refresh rate, also known as vertical refresh rate or vertical scan rate in reference to terminology originating with the cathode-ray tubes (CRTs), is the number of times per second that a raster-based display device displays a new image. This is independent from frame rate, which describes how many images are stored or ...

  4. Gamma correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_correction

    Gamma correction is a type of power law function whose exponent is the Greek letter gamma ( γ ). It should not be confused with the mathematical Gamma function. The lower case gamma, γ, is a parameter of the former; the upper case letter, Γ, is the name of (and symbol used for) the latter (as in Γ ( x )).

  5. Liquid-crystal display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-crystal_display

    A liquid-crystal display ( LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronically modulated optical device that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals combined with polarizers. Liquid crystals do not emit light directly [1] but instead use a backlight or reflector to produce images in color or monochrome.

  6. Contrast ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_ratio

    Contrast ratio. The contrast ratio ( CR) is a property of a display system, defined as the ratio of the luminance of the brightest shade (white) to that of the darkest shade (black) that the system is capable of producing. A high contrast ratio is a desired aspect of any display. It has similarities with dynamic range .

  7. Prothrombin time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prothrombin_time

    The prothrombin time ( PT) – along with its derived measures of prothrombin ratio ( PR) and international normalized ratio ( INR) – is an assay for evaluating the extrinsic pathway and common pathway of coagulation. This blood test is also called protime INR and PT/INR. They are used to determine the clotting tendency of blood, in such ...

  8. Finite-difference time-domain method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite-difference_time...

    Finite-difference time-domain ( FDTD) or Yee's method (named after the Chinese American applied mathematician Kane S. Yee, born 1934) is a numerical analysis technique used for modeling computational electrodynamics (finding approximate solutions to the associated system of differential equations ). Since it is a time-domain method, FDTD ...

  9. Display lag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_lag

    Display lag is a phenomenon associated with most types of liquid crystal displays (LCDs) like smartphones and computers and nearly all types of high-definition televisions (HDTVs). It refers to latency, or lag between when the signal is sent to the display and when the display starts to show that signal. This lag time has been measured as high ...
