Below table is the descriptive terms used in classifying defects.
Dark Spots/Lines Spots or lines that appear dark in the display patterns and are usually the result
of contamination. Defects do not vary in size or intensity (contrast) when contrast
voltage is varied. Contrast variation can be achieved through the use of varying
gray shade patterns.
Bright Spots/Lines Spots or lines appear light in the display patterns. Defects do not vary in size or
intensity (contrast) when contrast voltage is varied. Contrast variation can be
achieved through the use of varying gray shade patterns.
Polarizer Scratch When the unit lights, lines appear light (white) with display patterns dark and do
not vary in size. Physical damage to the polarizer does not damage the glass.
Polarizer Dent When the unit lights, spots appear light (white) with display patterns dark and do
not vary in size. Physical damage to the polarizer that does not damage the
glass.
Rubbing Line Horizontal or diagonal lines that appear gray with the display patterns dark and
may have resulted from an “ out of control “ rubbing process on the polyimide or
“ waves “ on the BEFs or prism sheets .
Newton Ring The “rainbow” effect caused by non-uniform cell thickness.
Mottling When the unit lights, variation / non – uniformity (splotchiness) appears light
(white) with the display and might vary in size.
Dim Line When the unit lights, line(s) in the minor (vertical) or major (horizontal) axis
appear dim, but not completely on or off.
Cross Lines Off When the unit lights , lines in both the minor and major axis do not appear.
Bright / Dark Dot A sub - pixel (R, G, B dot) stuck off / on (electrical).
