Abstract:
A thin film transistor (TFT) includes a poly-silicon island, a gate insulating layer, a gate stack layer, and a dielectric layer. The poly-silicon island includes a source region and a drain region. The gate insulating layer covers the poly-silicon island. The gate stack layer is disposed on the gate insulating layer and includes a first conductive layer and a second conductive layer. A length of the first conductive layer is less than a length of the second conductive layer. The dielectric layer covers the gate insulating layer and the gate stack layer, and therefore a number of cavities are formed between the second conductive layer and the gate insulating layer.

Abstract:
A pixel including a transistor, a liquid crystal capacitor, a storage capacitor and a coupling capacitor is provided. The first end of the transistor is connected to a data line, the liquid crystal capacitor and the storage capacitor are coupled between the second end of the transistor and a common voltage, and the coupling capacitor is connected between the second end of the transistor and a select line. After a driving voltage is outputted to the liquid crystal capacitor and the storage capacitor by the data line, the select line inputs a pulse signal to the liquid crystal capacitor through the coupling capacitor. The pulse signal is capable of increasing the ability of the electric field for driving the liquid crystal so that the liquid crystal can still display normally in the bend state even though the lowest pixel voltage is lower than the critical voltage.
