CRTs have nearly instantaneous pixel response times, but LCDs tend to be much slower. The result is the user might see smearing, motion blur or other visual artefacts when there is movement on the screen.  <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">A pixel\u2019s response time is the time it takes a pixel to change state. If it is a <i>rise-and-fal<\/i><i>l <\/i>response, then it is a measure of the time it takes a pixel to change state from black-to-white-to-black as illustrated in Figure 11.12. More specifically, it represents the pixel ability to change from 10% \u2018on\u2019 to 90% \u2018on\u2019 and then back from 10% \u2018off\u2019 to 90% \u2018off\u2019 again. Originally, this was the standard way of reporting response times of LCD TVs and com- puter monitors, and was normally listed as a <i>T<\/i><i>rT<\/i><i>f <\/i>(<i>tim<\/i><i>e rising, time falling<\/i>) measurement. Some manufactures started using a <i>g<\/i><i>r<\/i><i>ey-to-g<\/i><i>r<\/i><i>e<\/i><i>y <\/i>(<i>GtG<\/i>) meas- urement for LCD response times which is different from TrTf. There are as yet no standards and manufacturers can state any figure that suits them.  <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/-Udl2R4EH-Mo\/Ve7Sb_IwTxI\/AAAAAAAB8MQ\/PV6-IoVraT8\/s1600-h\/Liquid-crystal-display-LCD-06312.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px\" title=\"Liquid crystal display (LCD)-0631\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Liquid crystal display (LCD)-0631\" src=\"http:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/-acJ6ac9ll1w\/Ve7Seie8AaI\/AAAAAAAB8Mg\/1v9fMtDozNw\/Liquid-crystal-display-LCD-0631_thum.jpg?imgmax=800\" width=\"391\" height=\"186\" \/><\/a>  <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n<p align=\"justify\">\n<p>One factor that affects the response time is the viscosity of the LC mate- rial.

Short response times are required for fast moving images such as games. New techniques have been developed to reduce the response time. Such techniques include the use of lower viscosity LC material. Reducing the cell gap thickness is another technique which results in fewer LC material to re-orientate giving a response time as little as 8 ms. Thinner cells make production more difficult with lower yields and hence more expensive. Another technique apply a drive signal for a brief duration in order to give the pixel cells a \u2018jump start\u2019 and then reducing it to the required level as illustrated in Figure 11.13. This technique known as <i>amplified impulse <\/i>provides grey- to-grey transition to be completed up to five times faster than a typical LC display.  <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">For TV images, two techniques have been developed, both attempt to hide the cell transition time. \u2018<i>Backlight strobing<\/i>\u2019 involves flickering the backlight off momentarily and the \u2018<i>black frame insertion<\/i>\u2019 introduces a black frame during the LC transition. Backlight strobing also helps improve motion blur caused by the \u2018<i>sample-and-hold<\/i>\u2019 effect in which an image when held on the screen for the duration of a frame-time, blurs the retina as the eye tracks the motion from one frame to the next. By comparison, when an electron beam sweeps the surface of a cathode ray tube, it lights any given part of the screen only for a miniscule fraction of the frame time. It\u2019s a bit like comparing film or video footage shot with low- and high-shutter speeds. This type of motion-blur has come about as manufacturers moved from the traditional resistor type digital-to-analogue converter (DAC) to the much more compact sample-and-hold type.
