A review.With characteristics of its thin gage, light weight, low voltage and less power consumption, the liquid crystal display combined with polarizers has found extensive applications in electronic watches and desk-top calculators through its good compatibility with CMOS-IC and in word processors and personal computers through its capability in volume, size and color as comparable to CRT.Development of such LCDs requires development of new polarizers.This report will refer to properties of various LCDs and types and application methods of polarizers compatible with them.13 References
