11.4: Invited Paper: "EBU Color Filter for LCDs"

If LCDs can really catch up with and even take over from CRTs in Color, it has been the subject of debate yearly and still is. In October 1998 we officially announced a new color filter for LCD, EBU‐CF, which conforms to the EBU color standard for High Vision CRT Television. After various evaluations with a few LCD manufacturers, we have started its mass production. The color reproduction of these LCD Televisions have been highly evaluated and hoped for new applications of LCDs. The sRGB‐CF has been also supplied for LCD monitor which conforms to CRT monitor standard, sRGB, with a small modification of the green color of EBU‐CF. Using the EBU‐CF together with several means for high response, high color purity and high contrast, the large‐sized LCD TV have realized a better color reproduction and higher quality than CRT TV.
