Liquid crystal displays, the dominant flat panel display technology, are limited in brightness and energy efficiency because of the use of absorbing polarizers and color filters. Liquid crystal-based photoluminescent display devices have been fabricated that use thin, polarized photoluminescent layers that have highly anisotropic absorption or emission. These layers both polarize light and generate bright color. This approach can simplify device design and substantially increase device brightness, contrast, efficiency, and (in specific configurations) viewing angle.
液晶显示器作为主流的平板显示技术，由于使用了吸收型偏振器和彩色滤光片，在亮度和能源效率方面存在局限。现已制造出基于液晶的光致发光显示设备，该设备使用具有高度各向异性吸收或发射特性的薄偏振光致发光层。这些层既能使光偏振，又能产生明亮的色彩。这种方法可以简化设备设计，并大幅提高设备的亮度、对比度、效率以及（在特定配置下）视角。
