I'd appreciate a copy of the article, thanks. I try to keep reasonably
current on display
technology.

Another (totally different technology) that I've not actually seen yet is
LCRT technology,
which puts a lasing layer at the face of a conventional CRT. Developed in
the FSU, and
used for military and other high-performance displays. I wonder if any list
members,
possibly from that part of the world, could comment on how good these
actually are?
