DISPLAY DEVICES USED IN AGRICULTUR AUTOMATION UNIT3
Cathode Ray Tube (CRT)
Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) In a CRT, an electron gun is placed behind a positively charged glass screen, and a negatively charged electrode (the cathode) is mounted at the input of the electron gun. During operation, the cathode emits streams of electrons into the electron gun. The emitted electron stream is steered onto different parts of the positively charged screen by the electron gun; the direction of the electron stream is controlled by the electric 鍖eld of the de鍖ecting coils through which the beam passes.
The screen is composed of thousands of tiny dots of phosphorescent material arranged in a two dimensional array. Every time an electron hits a phosphor dot, it glows a speci鍖c color (red, blue, or green). A pixel on the screen is composed of phosphors of these three colors. In order to make an image appear to move on the screen, the electron gun constantly steers the electron stream onto different phosphors, lighting them up faster than the eye can detect the changes, and thus, the images appear to move. In modern color CRT displays, three electron guns shoot different electron streams for the three colors.
Liquid Crystal display (LCD) LCDs offer advantages over other technologies (such as cathode ray tubes) in that they are lighter and thinner and consume a lot less power to operate. LCD technology relies on special electrical and optical properties of a class of materials known as liquid crystals, 鍖rst discovered in the 1880s by botanist Friedrich Reinitzer. In the basic LCD display, light shines through a thin stack of layers as shown in Figure.

Each stack consists of layers in the following Order : color 鍖lter, vertical (or horizontal) polarizer 鍖lter, glass plate with transparent electrodes, liquid crystal layer, second glass plate with transparent electrodes, horizontal (or vertical) polarizer 鍖lter. Light is shone from behind the stack (called the backlight). As light crosses through the layer stack, it is polarized along one direction by the 鍖rst 鍖lter.
If no voltage is applied on any of the electrodes, the liquid crystal molecules align the 鍖ltered light so that it can pass through the second 鍖lter. Once through the second 鍖lter, it crosses the color 鍖lter (which allows only one color of light through) and the viewer sees light of that color. If a voltage is applied between the electrodes on the glass plates (which are on either side of the liquid crystal), the induced electric 鍖eld causes the liquid crystal molecules to rotate. Once rotated, the crystals no longer align the light coming through the 鍖rst 鍖lter so that it can pass through the second 鍖lter plate.
If light cannot cross, the area with the applied voltage looks dark. This is precisely how simple hand-held calculator displays work; usually the bright background is made dark every time a character is displayed.
Thin-Film Transistor (TFT) (version of LCD) They are also called active matrix displays. In TFT LCDs, several thin 鍖lms are deposited on one of the glass substrates and patterned into transistors. Each color component of a pixel has its own microscale transistor that controls the voltage across the liquid crystal; since the transistors only take up a tiny portion of the pixel area, they effectively are invisible. Thus, each pixel has its own electrode driver built directly into it. This speci鍖c feature enabled the construction of the 鍖at high-resolution screens in common use.
Light Emitting Diode (LED) displays A different but very popular display technology employs tiny light-emitting diodes (LED) in large pixel arrays on 鍖at screens. Each pixel in an LED display is composed of three LEDs (one each of red, green, and blue). Whenever a current is made to pass through a particular LED, it emits light at its particular color. In this way, displays can be made 鍖atter (i.e., the LED circuitry takes up less room than an electron gun or LCD) and larger (since making large, 鍖at LED arrays technically is less challenging than giant CRT tubes or LCD displays). Unlike LCDs, LED displays do not need a backlight to function and easily can be made multicolor.
Organic LEDs (OLED) Modern LED research is focused mostly on 鍖exible and organic LEDs (OLEDs), which are made from polymer light-emitting materials and can be fabricated on 鍖exible substrates (such as an overhead transparency).

Plasma Display
Plasma display Each pixel in a plasma display contains one or more microscale pocket(s) of trapped noble gas (usually neon or xenon); electrodes patterned on a glass substrate are placed in front and behind each pocket of gas The back of one of the glass plates is coated with light- emitting phosphors. When a suf鍖cient voltage is applied across the electrodes, a large electric 鍖eld is generated across the noble gas, and a plasma (ionized gas) is ignited. The plasma emits ultraviolet light which impacts the phosphors; when impacted with UV light, the phosphors emit light of a certain color (blue, green, or red). In this way, each pocket can generate one color.
