An active element array structure is provided. The active element array
structure comprises a base plate and a plurality of gate lines, data
lines, active devices, storage capacitors and pixel electrodes thereon.
Each storage capacitor has an upper electrode and the upper electrode has
at least an aperture. The direction of electric field crossing over the
aperture forms an included angle with the alignment direction of an
optically self-compensated birefringence liquid crystal layer. When an
electric field is applied to the optically self-compensated birefringence
liquid crystal layer, the liquid crystal molecules close to the aperture
twist and rapidly transit from a splay state to a bend state. Thereafter,
elastic force between the liquid crystal molecules spread the transition
to the entire liquid crystal layer so that an optically self-compensated
birefringence liquid crystal display is warmed up rapidly.
