A-SI TFT

That monitor uses a TN panel. "TFT" (thin film transistor) refers to all lcd's IPS, VA, TN etc.. and the A-SI has nothing to do with the techonolgy type. It's clever marketing...makes you think you are getting a special panel type when in fact they aren't telling you anything of the sort. ;)
 
I have read some about A-SI but it's advanced. One thing is it uses amorphous silicon.
With A-SI manufacturing you add transistors that get a slow ability to receive electrons.

Has this something to do with A-SI being a bad input lag technology?

Samsung Electronics today announced that it has successfully developed the world's first single-sheet, 40-inch active matrix OLED for emissive flat panel TV applications. The high-definition-compatible OLED prototype has a wide screen pixel format of 1280x800 (WXGA) driven by an amorphous silicon (a-Si) active matrix backplane to permit faster video response times with low power consumption. In January Samsung announced that it developed 21-inch single-panel active matrix-based OLED display.

^^ That would indicate for lower input lag.
 
a-Si is just a LCD manufacturing process. Nearly all mainstream screens are manufactured using this process due to low-costs.




“The most common semiconducting layer is made of amorphous silicon (a-Si).
a-Si TFTs are amenable to large-area fabrication using glass substrates in a low-temperature (300°C to 400°C) process.

An alternative TFT technology, polycrystalline silicon - or polysilicon or p-Si-is costly to produce and especially difficult to fabricate when manufacturing large-area displays.
Nearly all TFT LCDs are made from a-Si because of the technology's economy and maturity, but the electron mobility of a p-Si TFT is one or two orders of magnitude greater than that of an a-Si TFT.

This makes the p-Si TFT a good candidate for an TFT array containing integrated drivers, which is likely to be an attractive choice for small, high definition displays such as view finders and projection displays.”
