Short for
Nano Emissive Display, NED is the technology that enables manufacturers to design large
flat panel displays that exceed the image quality characteristics of plasma and
LCD screens at a lower cost.
* Instead of using either one cathode ray tube (
CRT) or millions of tiny
LED lights to project a video image, NED uses millions of accelerated electrons charged by just 5 to 10 volts of electricity, compared with 5,000 volts for large-screen, high-definition
LCDs. The electrons shoot toward a phosphor plate, creating the moving image. This technique requires less voltage than a CRT.
