HOW TO SPOT MURA
TherearemanysymptomsofMuraandalsomultiplecauses.Severalofthesearelistedbelow:
• Impuritiesorforeignparticlesinthecrystalmatrix
• UnevendistributionofLCDmatrixduringmanufacturing
• Non-uniformluminancedistributionofthebacklight
• Panelassemblyinducedstress
• FlawswithintheLCDcells
• Thermalinducedstress-hightemperatureoperationoverlongperiodsoftime
