Thin film transistor array panel for liquid crystal display and method for manufacturing the same

摘要

A method of fabricating a thin film transistor array panel for a liquid crystal display is provided. A gate line assembly is formed on an insulating substrate. The gate line assembly includes gate lines and gate electrodes connected to the gate lines. A gate insulating layer is formed on the insulating substrate having the gate line assembly. A semiconductor layer is formed on the gate insulating layer. A data line assembly is formed, the data line assembly includes data lines crossing over the gate lines, source electrodes connected to the data lines and placed adjacent to the gate electrodes, and drain electrodes placed opposite to the source electrodes with respect to the gate electrodes. A protective layer is deposited onto the insulating substrate having the data line assembly. The protective layer is patterned to form first contact holes exposing the drain electrodes. Pixel electrodes are formed on the protective layer such that the pixel electrodes are electrically connected to the drain electrodes, wherein one of the gate line assembly and the data line assembly further includes a low resistance conductive layer.
