Black Matrix

["John H. Kim" <jokim@tuna.mit.edu>]

I found out what that black matrix thing is - nothing fancy.  Here's a
quote from http://itri.loyola.edu/Displays/C3_S3.htm

> For color displays, red, green, and blue color filters are patterned
> on the top plate. In the interpixel area on the top plate, an opaque
> material is deposited and patterned.  This black matrix improves the
> contrast ratio by preventing light leakage in the areas between the
> pixels. 

It has a couple nice pictures with it.
