In the ever-expanding arena of large-display technology, is plasma here to stay? “Plasma displays, I think, are a very awkward technology,” James Jaskie, chief scientist at Motorola’s Microelectronics and Physical Sciences Laboratory, told TechNewsWorld. Plasma display panels use emissive technology in which the display is created by electrodes igniting the plasma gas to give off various colors, Jaskie explained. “Everyone we’ve talked to that makes plasma displays is eager to find another way,” he said.
What would be the the best choice, Plasma or LCD and why?
The answer is, "depends what you're using it for." While Plasma rules in ultra-large displays, LCDs are growing...and we can all stay tuned with the assurance that new display technologies will rise to challenge both Plasma and LCDs.
