Which mechanism allows LCD screens to modulate light?

A)Stress-induced birefringence manipulates light polarization
B)Quantum tunneling bypasses insulator capacitance
C)Superparamagnetism alters domain orientation randomly
D)Thermoelectric effect generates modulating voltages

💡 Explanation

Stress-induced birefringence causes changes to the refractive index of the liquid crystal, altering the polarization of light passing through it; therefore, applied voltage manipulates birefringence rather than domain orientation because quantum effects play a negligible macroscopic role.
