“Thin film transistor” and “light emitting diode” are two terms used to describe different parts of a liquid crystal display screen. It is possible for a LCD to use both TFT and LED technology at the same time. TFT technology handles how the pixels are displayed on the screen whereas LED refers to how the screen lights up. Most consumer LCD displays use TFT technology; however, some higher-end screens use Organic Light-Emitting Diode technology instead. LED are an improvement over fluorescent back-lighting technology.
