The world's biggest LCD panel maker employed its own super-shrink technology, a combination of 3.9-millimeter thick glass and "needle slim" technology to achieve the largest viewing area within the smallest outline dimensions. These super-shrink LCD panels meet the specifications for slimmer LED TVs where display frame size is critical. "Slim" has emerged as the top buzzword for Samsung Electronics' TV business this year due to its aggressive LED TV campaigns. The company's LCD business department has begun mass-production of the industry's first ultra-slim panels suited for large size TVs.
For the product, the South Korean flat-screen maker has newly developed core components and realigned the backlight unit structure. It's edge-lit LED backlighting offers lighter weight and thinner designs, which are preferable for wall mounting over bulkier direct-lit LED LCDs.
While a direct-lit LED backlight will project light forward across the full expanse of the display from the front, edge-lit LEDs emit light from a row of LEDs on the top and bottom of every panel, using less power. The edge-lit technology gathers the light toward the center of the display and bends it, reflecting it forward through a light-guide plate that precisely focuses the light for outstanding picture quality.
Samsung, which is capturing most of the global LED TV market, is planning to sell over 10 million LED TVs in 2010, inspired by the rising demand for slimmer and high-end TVs.
Most of the LED TVs that Samsung is set to sell are edge-lit based. Along with slimmer LCD panels for tele vision sets, Samsung has also been applying the similar slimmer technology to manu acture highend monitors and portable n o t e b o o k s.
