Introduction

- '''Plasma display panel (PDP)''' TV's, which use use small cells containing electrically charged ionized gases to display the image;
- '''Thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal display (TFT LCD) '''TV's, which use small LCD shutters to selectively filter light emitted from cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) or light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which can in turn be mounted either to the side of the display or behind the LCD screen;
- '''Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) '''display TV's, which use individual LEDs for each pixel of the image and therefore do not require any backlight.
