Abstract
A pixel structure includes a scan line, a data line, a bump, an active device, and a pixel electrode electrically connected to the active device. The active device includes a gate, a semiconductor layer, a gate insulation layer between the gate and the semiconductor layer, a source, and a drain. The bump has a top surface and side surfaces in periphery of the top surface. The gate covers the bump and electrically connects the scan line. The semiconductor layer is on the top surface and the side surfaces. The source is on at least one of the side surfaces, in contact with the semiconductor layer, and electrically connected to the data line. The drain is on the top surface and in contact with the semiconductor layer, and the drain does not cover the semiconductor layer on a corner section of the bump between the top surface and the side surfaces.
