LG Phillips LCD says it has developed the world’s largest liquid crystal display panel measuring 100 inches across.
The massive wide-screen panel has a screen ratio of 16:9 and measures 2.2 m by 1.2 m. The largest currently available LCD panel of 82 inches was developed by Samsung Electronics in March last year but has yet to become available in the shops.
Among commercially available panels, a 65-inch TV by Japan’s Sharp is the biggest. Plasma display panels retain a slight edge, with Japan’s Panasonic releasing a 103-inch panel early this year, and Samsung Electronics selling the world’s largest PDP TV measuring 80 inches since last year.
LG Philips says the development proves it is the global leader in large LCD technology because the industry has so far considered a 100-inch LDC panel impossible to make. The feat will also boost the competitiveness of LCD TVs vis-à-vis PDP TVs in the big-screen TV market, breaking a perception that only PDPs can deliver good quality in that size, it added.
Using the company’s own copper-based interconnect technology, the panel offers high-definition 6.22 megapixel picture quality without distorting video signals and supports a response speed below 5 ms with 1.07 million colors. It also boasts a maximum 3,000:1 contrast ratio, 92 percent color reproduction and a 180-degree viewing angle, LG Philips says.
“Technological advances for large LDC TVs, such as the 100-inch LCD, will act as a catalyst accelerating customer demand for high picture quality and large screens,” said LG Phillips LCD’s executive vice president for development Yeo Sang-deog.
