LCD Monitor & The advantages of LCD Monitor

LCD Monitor: 

The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) uses a clear liquid chemical trapped in tiny pockets between two pieces of glass. Each pocket of liquid is covered both front and back by very thin wires. When a small amount of current is applied to both wires, a chemical reaction turns the liquid dark, thereby blocking light. The point of blocked light is the pixel.

The advantages of LCD Monitor:

1. Low power consumption 
2. Low cost
3. Small size
4. LEDs do not emit light; as a result, the image has very little contrast.
5. Screen is susceptible to glare, so the optimum viewing angle is narrow.
6. LCDs have less colour capability. 
7. Resolution is not as good as that of a CRT.
