In physics and chemistry , plasma is a state of matter similar to gas  in which a certain portion of the particles are ionized.

A plasma display panel (PDP)

is a type of flat panel display common to large TV displays 30 inches (76 cm) or larger. They are called "plasma" displays because the technology utilizes small cells containing electrically charged ionized gases.

The highly advanced backlighting feature of the LED TV has made it ahead of the LCD TV model.

When it comes to power consumption, LCD are still best. The LCD TVs use about half

the power than LED.
