  • Publication number: 20240027816
    Abstract: An interactive touch-screen display device includes a liquid crystal layer; a conductive layer, the conductive layer being translucent and electronically grounded; a polarizer; and a glass layer, wherein the conductive layer contacts the glass layer and contacts the polarizer. Additionally, a method of assembling an interactive touch-screen display device includes creating an assembly by layering a liquid crystal layer and a polarizer. The method also includes bringing a conductive material proximate to the polarizer; creating a static charge on the conductive material to attract dust particles to the conductive material; and removing the conductive material, thereby carrying away dust particles.
