The document discusses the working principles of an LCD screen. LCD screens use liquid crystals to block or allow light to pass through, producing images without emitting light themselves. They consist of multiple layers including polarized filters and electrodes. When a current is applied, it causes the liquid crystal molecules to untwist, changing the angle of polarized light and allowing some light to pass, making pixels appear dark. LCD screens have advantages such as low cost, thinness, and low power usage, though they also have disadvantages like requiring backlighting.
