Liquid crystal display device and method for fabricating the same

摘要

A liquid crystal display device to reduce damage of signal lines and switching devices caused by electrostatic discharge shock. The liquid crystal display device includes a plurality of pixels defined by intersections between gate lines and data lines, dummy pixels disposed along circumferences of the pixels, common lines disposed parallel to the gate lines, the common lines being connected to the pixels and the dummy pixels, a first gate metal to receive an exterior common voltage, second gate metals that extend from the common lines to one side, the second gate metals having a pad shape, a source-drain metal disposed in a direction parallel to the data lines at one side of the second gate metals, a first connection pattern to electrically connect the first gate metal to the source-drain metal, and a second connection pattern to electrically connect the source-drain metal to the second gate metals.
