An oxide TFT-LCD is a type of thin-film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) that uses oxide semiconductors as the active layer in the thin-film transistor. The oxide TFT-LCD technology offers advantages over traditional amorphous silicon TFT-LCDs, such as higher electron mobility, lower off-state current, and better uniformity over large areas. This results in improved image quality, faster response times, and lower power consumption.
Oxide TFT-LCD LCM are made using oxide thin-film transistor (Oxide TFT) or metal oxide thin film transistor. Oxide TFT is a type of thin film transistor where the semiconductor is a metal oxide compound.
Oxide TFT is highly energy-efficient component because the leakage current is very small when the screen is not working, so it can extend the battery life of notebooks. one of the key features is a thin and light form factor.
Oxide TFT-LCDs are commonly used in high-end displays such as laptops, smartphones, tablets, and TVs, as well as in specialized applications such as medical imaging and industrial displays. Some of the most common oxide semiconductors used in oxide TFT-LCDs include indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO), zinc oxide (ZnO), and indium zinc oxide (IZO).
In the late 1980s, a team of researchers led by Professor Brody at the University of Edinburgh, UK, developed a new type of TFT using metal oxide semiconductors, which became known as oxide TFTs. These new TFTs offered improved performance and stability compared to the amorphous silicon TFTs, and they have since become the standard for use in high-resolution LCD displays.
So while many people contributed to the development of oxide TFT-LCD technology, Professor T. Peter Brody is widely recognized as one of the pioneers of the field.
