LG Display Shows LCD Panel With Quantum-dot LED Backlight at SID 2010

LG Display of South Korea has exhibited an LCD panel whose color gamut was expanded by using quantum-dot LEDs for the backlight at SID 2010.

The quantum-dot LED is used for a backlight that can expand the color gamut of the LCD panel. It is because the colorimetric purity of a quantum-dot LED is higher than that of a normal LED. The screen's diagonal dimension is 3.2 inches. The pixel count, pixel pitch and luminance of the LCD panel are 480 x 800, 0.087mm and 450cd/m2, respectively.

In general, to expand the color gamut of an LCD panel with a normal pixel structure (RGB colors), its power consumption has to be compromised. It is because the light transmission rate of the color filter is lowered by heightening the color of the color filter to expand the color gamut. Therefore, it becomes necessary to increase the luminance of the backlight, resulting in an increase in power consumption.

On the other hand, the Quantum-dot LED Backlight becomes possible to expand the color gamut without heightening the color of the color filter, which makes it necessary to increase the power consumption of the LCD panel.

With quantum-dot LEDs, the luminous wavelength can be controlled by changing their size. This time, LG Display used quantum-dot LEDs as a light source that has peak areas for three colors. Moreover, the company combined it with a yellow YAG phosphors.

LG Display did not reveal the materials for the quantum-dot LED or when it will start commercial production of the LCD panel.
