A
active-matrix display—A liquid crystal display (LCD) made
from an array of liquid crystal cells using active-matrix
technology. Also known as a “TFT display,” in its simplest
form there is one thin film transistor (TFT) for each cell. This
type of display works well with tablet devices because of its
shallow depth and high-quality color. Active-matrix displays
are viewable from wider angles than most passive-matrix
displays.
