1.等离子面板显示器：
等离子面板是一种显示器，它由两块平行的玻璃板组成，它们之间有一个细小的间隙。玻璃板之间的间隙充满了包括氖在内的气体。由于等离子面板的另一个名称是气体放电显示器，因为气体填充在等离子面板的平行板之间。等离子面板有黑色和白色两种颜色，也有当今需求量很大的彩色类型。
2.液晶显示器：
LCD 代表液晶显示器。它是一种非发光器件的显示器，它使用光源作为显示器；光源是黑光并将其转换为图形图像。用于显示器的 LCD 使用两个主要组件，如下所示：
- 偏振光
- 液晶材料
LCD 有两种类型：有源矩阵 LCD 和无源矩阵 LCD。
等离子面板和液晶屏的区别：
| Sr. No. | Basis | Plasma Display | LCD |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. | Technology Used | It is the display which depends upon the light bulb and also mixture of gases which are present in between the two plates of the plasma display. | It is the concept which based on the liquid crystal material that is used to block or transmit polarized light which is used to display. |
| 2. | Weight | In weight, they are heavy. | They are in less weight as compared to the plasma display. |
| 3. | Burn-in | Plasma panel suffers from burn-in problem; i.e., plasma panels are easily to burn-in of static images. | LCDs does not suffer from such kind of problem. |
| 4. | Life-Span | Their life-span is shorter, which is around 20, 000 to 60, 000 hours. | Their life-span is long, which is around 50, 000 to 1, 00, 000 hours. |
| 5. | Cost | They are cheaper. | They are costly. |
| 6. | Viewing angle | It shows the same view from the every angle. | It also shows the same view but upto 165 degrees, picture in the LCD suffers from the side view. |
| 7. | Power Consumption | It consumes more power. | It consumes less power. |
| 8. | Performance | They have poor performance at high attitudes due to the pressure in between the gases and also high air pressure at altitudes | It does not suffer from such issues. |
| 9. | Contrast Ratio | It has higher contrast ratio which is upto 3000:1. | It has lower contrast ratio which is upto 350-450:1. |
| 10. | Motion Trackling | It does not suffers from the motion lag even at fast moving images. | It suffers from motion lag. |
| 11. | Brightness | It has lower brightness, so it is basically viewed in darkened-rooms. | It has high brightness, so it is basically viewed in brightened areas. |
| 12. | Heat | As it consumes more power, so it also produce more heat. | As it consumes less power, so it produces less heat. |
| 13. | Screen Reflection | Screen surface is less reflective. | Screen surface is more reflective. |
