Helical twisted nematic (HTN)
Helical Twisted Nematic (HTN) is a type of liquid crystal display technology where the liquid crystals are arranged in a helical or spiral structure. In this configuration, the molecules naturally twist in a helical shape, which influences how light passes through the display. When an electric voltage is applied, the twist changes orientation, controlling light transmission and creating images. HTN displays are known for their fast response times and high contrast, making them suitable for high-quality screens. This structure allows for efficient control of light and color, resulting in sharp, clear images in various electronic devices.
