LG.Philips LCD announced today that it has developed a 100-inch TFT-LCD panel, which it claims is the world’s largest.
The 100-inch LCD panel is approximately 1.5 times bigger than the current largest LCD panel of 82-inches and is similar in size to the largest plasma display panel (PDP) currently available.
Developed at LG.Philips LCD’s P7, which the company claims is the world’s largest seventh-generation (7G) substrate (1950×2250mm) fabrication line, in Paju, South Korea, the 100-inch panel is a wide screen (16:9) LCD TV panel with a screen width and height exceeding 2.2m and 1.2m, respectively.
With LG.Philips LCD’s proprietary copper-based interconnect technology, the 100-inch LCD panel supports a response speed below 5ms and offers 6.22 million-pixel picture quality, according to the company.
The product features a maximum 3000:1 contrast ratio, color reproduction of 92 percent and a 180-degree viewing angle based on Super IPS and super-large compensation film technologies.
LG.Philips LCD’s Executive Vice President for Development Center, Sang Deog Yeo, said, “Our development of the 100-inch LCD panel reaffirms that LG.Philips LCD is the global leader in large-area LCD technology. Technological advances for large-area LCD TVs, such as the 100-inch LCD, will act as a catalyst that accelerates customer demand for high picture quality and large screens.”
