Every one who has responded here had expanded what LCD is, probably jus to hit the counts. But the question is why the questioner wanted to know that? If it is with respect to somewhere he/she came accross, then its just the common kind of display technology which we see every now and then. Calculators, Laptops(more appropriately TFT), and displays in Washing machine, mobile phones, etc etc.

LCD stands for liquid crystal display. It was used extensively in calculators previously. Now-a-days, it is being used for TVs and computer monitors as well.

I don't know how far it's true but I happen to read the technical aspects behind the working of LCD. There are many horizontal and vertical lines on an LCD screen. More the number of lines(vertical and horizontal), the more will be the resolution. And in every intersection of these lines, a transistor is placed to control the current which is fed into the crystal to emit different colors. That's how color LCDs work. Hope this helps the one who started the discussion.. If anyone knows more, please follow up..

It stands for Liquid crystal display. Electricity is passed through flat TFT transistors onto the crystals which emanate light resulting to the display on the monitor.

LCD stands for Liquid Crystal Display. LCD screens are getting popular day by day. I would like to know whether the life of LCD screens are better than normal screens that we use in our computer for our daily operations. I would like to get views of others here to understand more on LCD.

“LCD” stands for “liquid crystal display,” so it is redundant to write “LCD display.” Use just “LCD” or “LCD screen” instead. Many people confuse this abbreviation with “LED,” which stands for “light-emitting diode”—a much earlier technology. You will often see explanations even in technical contexts in which “LCD” is incorrectly defined as “liquid crystal diode.”
