DIRECT RECORDINGDIRECT RECORDING

DIRECT RECORDINGDIRECT RECORDING

• The signal to be recorded modulates the current in the recording head

• When the tape is moved under the recording head, the magnetic particles retain a state of permanent magnetisation

• The input signal is converted to a spatial variation of the magnetisation of the particles on the tape.

DIRECT RECORDINGDIRECT RECORDING

CATHODE RAY OSCILLOSCOPECATHODE RAY OSCILLOSCOPE

CATHODE RAY OSCILLOSCOPECATHODE RAY OSCILLOSCOPE

CATHODE RAY TUBECATHODE RAY TUBE

The interior of the tube is a very good vacuum, with a pressure of around 0.01 Pa (10−7 atm) or less. At any greater pressure, collisions of electrons with air molecules would scatter the electron beam excessively.

The cathode, at the left end in the figure, is raised to a high temperature by the heater, and electrons evaporate from the surface of the cathode.

The accelerating anode, with a small hole at its center, is maintained at a high positive potential V1, of the order of 1 to 20 kV, relative to the cathode. This potential difference gives rise to an electric field directed from right to left in the region between the accelerating anode and the cathode.

Electrons passing through the hole in the anode form a narrow beam and travel with constant horizontal velocity from the anode to the fluorescent screen.

The area where the electrons strike the screen glows brightly.

The control grid regulates the number of electrons that reach the anode and hence the brightness of the spot on the screen.

The focusing anode ensures that electrons leaving the cathode in slightly different directions are focused down to a narrow beam and all arrive at the same spot on the screen.

The assembly of cathode, control grid, focusing anode, and accelerating electrode is called the electron gun.

The beam of electrons passes between two pairs of deflecting plates. An electric field between the first pair of plates deflects the electrons horizontally, and an electric field between the second pair deflects them vertically.

If no deflecting fields are present, the electrons travel in a straight line from the hole in the accelerating anode to the center of the screen, where they produce a bright spot.

LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAYLIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY

• Lcd is a thin flat panel used for electronically displaying information such as text, images and moving pictures.

• These compounds have a crystalline arrangement of molecules.

• Liquid crystal displays do not emit or generate light but rather alter externally generated illumination.

LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAYLIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY

Viewing angle: ( more specifically known as viewing direction).

Color support: How many types of colors are supported ( more specifically known as color gamut).

Brightness: The amount of light emitted from the display (more specifically known as luminance).

Contrast ratio: The ratio of the intensity of the brightest bright to the darkest dark.

Aspect ratio: The ratio of the width to the height (for example, 4:3, 5:4, 16:9 or 16:10).

CLASSIFICATIONS OF LIQUID CLASSIFICATIONS OF LIQUID CRYSTALSCRYSTALS

• Smectic• Nematic• cholesteric

SMECTICSMECTIC

• Smectic is a layered structure with the molecules oriented parallel or tilted relative to the layer normal.

• They are characterized by absence of positioned order with in the layers.

• Both orientation order and positional order is present in the smectic crystals.

NEMATICNEMATIC

•One of the most common LC phases is the nematic ,where the molecules have no positional order, but they have long range orientation order.•Thus, the molecules flow and their centre of mass positions are randomly distributed as in a liquid, but they all point in the same direction.•Have fluidity similar to that of ordinary(isotropic) liquids but they can be easily aligned by an external magnetic or electric field.

CHOLESTERICCHOLESTERIC

• In these crystals the rod like molecules in each layer are oriented at different angle with in each layer.

• This phase exhibits a twisting of the molecules perpendicular to the direction with the molecular axis parallel to the director.

• The optical activity of the crystal depends upon the orientation and the twist of the molecules as one goes from one layer to another.

TYPES OF LCD’STYPES OF LCD’S

• Dynamic Scattering Displays• Field Effect Displays

Dynamic Scattering DisplayDynamic Scattering Display• In the case of dynamic scattering display in the

absence of an applied voltage the dives is transparent. But, when the voltage is applied, the liquid crystal becomes an efficient scatter of white light.

ConstructionConstruction• It consists of a pure nematic liquid crystal in

which impurities are added to increase its conductivity, due to ions in them.

• The liquid crystal is filled in between two glass plates which are coated with transparent tin oxide and act as electrodes.

• The spacer and scalar help in filling of liquid and to change in liquid level.

WorkingWorking• In the normal State, without application of electric field, all

the molecules in the nematic liquid crystal are parallel to the glass plate. The materials is transparent.

• When the electric field is applied, the dipoles of the molecules are rotated into alignment in the direction, exactly perpendicular to filed direction.

• Now, the ions are pukked by the electrodes and hence the positive irons will go towards negative potential and vice versa.

WorkingWorking• Therefore these ions (impurity) distrupt the molecules

which are orderly arranged and create a small turbulence. Due to turbulence the negative charges are gathered as crests and positive charge are gathered as through, with respect to the field direction.

• When the applied voltage is at critical value, the turbulence becomes more, which results in the variation of refractive index of the medium of the crystal. So, the light falling to the crystal is scattered and hence liquid appears dark in the white background.

• When the field is switched OFF, the molecules are locally rearranged and material becomes transparent and the display is erased.

TYPICAL LIQUID CRYSTAL

TYPICAL LIQUID CRYSTAL

• In the absence of the electrical signal ,orientation order is maintained in the crystal allowing light to transmit.

• This makes LCD displays clear.• The random orientation results scattering of

light which lights display segment on a dark background.

Field effect LCD/The Twisted Nematic Crystal Field effect LCD/The Twisted Nematic Crystal Display ConstructionDisplay Construction

• In this nematic phase, liquid crystal molecules are kept between two transparent glass plates. The top glass plate and the bottom glass plates are coated with a transparent electrode. The polarizer and analyzer are arranged in the crossed position, above and below the glass plates respectively.

WorkingWorking• The top glass plate is rotated through 90 and

hence the molecules are also twisted through 90.Without FieldWithout Field

• The lights passed through the polarizer, then through the molecules and finally through the analyzer.

• Here, the field of view appears bright, because the plane of polarization is rotated through 90 by the crossed position of polarizer and analyzer and another 90 by twister nematic molecules.

With fieldWith field

With fieldWith field• Now, then the field is applied, the twisted molecules come

to normal position and there is only 90 rotation of plane of polarization between polarizer and analyzer. Therefore, there is no transmission of light and the display appears black in white back ground.

• When the electric field is switched off, once again the molecules return back to their twisted position and so display is bright and erased.
