One way in which it differs from LCD televisions is that the former use fluorescent lights while the latter use diodes.  Different arrangements of these lights are also possible. To make an LED work, the lights are either positioned behind the screen or encircle it. The actual form of the screens can also vary as a result of the difference between LCD and LED TVs. So, for instance, you’ll often see that LEDs are thinner than LCDs.
