At this moment, the dot structure 100 that is disposed on the substrate 110 comprises grid 120, pattern dielectric layer 130, patterned semiconductor layer 140, patterned metal layer 150, flatness layer 174 and transparent pixels electrode 180.Grid 120 is disposed on the substrate 110, and pattern dielectric layer 130 is disposed on the substrate 110 with cover gate 120.Patterned semiconductor layer 140 is disposed on the pattern dielectric layer 130.Patterned semiconductor layer 140 comprises channel layer 142 and a plurality of projection 144 that is disposed at grid 120 tops.In addition, patterned metal layer 150 comprise source electrode 152, the drain electrode 154 and with the drain electrode 154 reflective pixel electrodes that are connected 156, wherein source electrode 152 and drain electrode 154 cover the subregion of channel layer 142 respectively, and reflective pixel electrode 156 covers projection 144 (or projection), and grid 120, pattern dielectric layer 130, patterned semiconductor layer 140 and patterned metal layer 150 transistor formeds 160.Flatness layer 174 is disposed on the transistor 160, and wherein flatness layer 174 has contact hole 176, to expose the subregion of reflective pixel electrode 156.Transparent pixels electrode 180 is disposed on the flatness layer 174, and is electrically connected with reflective pixel electrode 156 by contact hole 176.
By Fig. 1 E as can be known, dot structure 100 has allows the transparent pixels electrode 180 of light penetration and with the reflective pixel electrode 156 of light reflection, and two kinds of pixel electrodes 156,180 are electrically connected to each other by contact hole 176.Therefore, dot structure 100 is a transflective pixel structure.In dot structure 100, flatness layer 174 can influence the electric field of reflective pixel electrode 156 tops, makes that the electric field of reflective pixel electrode 156 tops is different with the electric field of transparent pixels electrode 180 tops.Therefore, dot structure 100 is applied on the LCD, then can makes the reflective display region at reflective pixel electrode 156 places and the viewing area that penetrates at transparent pixels electrode 180 places present roughly the same display effect by the thickness adjustment of flatness layer 174.In other words, when dot structure 100 is applied to semi-penetrated semi-reflected liquid crystal display, be not easy to penetrate the unbalanced phenomenon of display frame between viewing area and the reflective display region.
At present, mostly the design of most semi-penetrated semi-reflected liquid crystal display is to adopt the configuration of bed hedgehopping layer, forms double liquid-crystal box gap (dual cell gap), so that penetrate display frame uniformity between viewing area and the reflective display region.In comparison, the design of dot structure 100 of the present invention, can be by adjusting flatness layer thickness or material (dielectric coefficient), under single cel-gap (single cell gap) structure, reach and penetrate display frame uniformity between viewing area and the reflective display region, therefore the manufacturing process of dot structure 100 is comparatively simple, and manufacturing cost is also comparatively cheap.Further say, in the existing semi-penetrated semi-reflected liquid crystal display with double liquid-crystal box gap, edge at the bed hedgehopping layer, the ordered state of liquid crystal molecule is not easy to be controlled, there is the phenomenon of light leak to produce easily, and then makes the display quality of semi-penetrated semi-reflected liquid crystal display glide.Relatively, because the dot structure 100 of present embodiment has single cel-gap, therefore be difficult for having the phenomenon of light leak to produce.
In addition, Fig. 3 A and Fig. 3 B illustrate the three-dimensional structure diagram of the liquid crystal panel of two kinds of embodiment of the present invention.Please earlier with reference to Fig. 3 A, liquid crystal panel 300A comprises the first substrate 310A, second substrate 320 and liquid crystal layer 330.Wherein, the first substrate 310A comprises the described dot structure 100 of the foregoing description of a plurality of arrayed, and second substrate 320 and the first substrate 310A subtend are provided with.330 of liquid crystal layers are arranged between the first substrate 310A and second substrate 320.
What deserves to be mentioned is that each dot structure 100 has an echo area 100a and a penetrating region 100b.Please be simultaneously with reference to Fig. 1 E and Fig. 3 A, the dot structure 100 of present embodiment for example is a transflective pixel structure 100, wherein reflective pixel electrode 156 is positioned at echo area 100a and transparent pixels electrode 180 is positioned at penetrating region 100b.
On the other hand, among the liquid crystal panel 300B, the dot structure 312 of the first substrate 310B can be a reflective pixel structure (as the dot structure 312 of Fig. 3 B).In detail, in the dot structure 312, reflective pixel electrode can be distributed in the whole viewing area.
In sum, dot structure of the present invention and manufacture method thereof have the advantage of the following stated at least:
1. in the dot structure of the present invention, projection is to utilize that existing rete is made in the transistor, and therefore the making of projection need not increase extra processing step.
2. in the dot structure of the present invention, the thickness and the external form of projection can change by control of process condition, and then improve the reflectivity that is covered in the reflective pixel electrode on the projection more efficiently.
3. dot structure of the present invention has single cel-gap, so be difficult for having the phenomenon of light leak to produce.
Though the present invention discloses as above with embodiment; right its is not in order to limit the present invention; have in the technical field under any and know the knowledgeable usually; without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; when can doing a little change and retouching, so protection scope of the present invention is as the criterion when looking the claim person of defining.
