Calibrating Monitor Gamma
LCD/Flat panel Monitors
Short for liquid crystal display, LCD displays use two sheets of
polarizing material with a liquid crystal solution between them. An
electric current passed through the liquid causes the crystals to align
so that light cannot pass through them. Each crystal, therefore, is like
a shutter, either allowing light to pass through or blocking the light.
