Liquid crystal display device and method of fabricating the same by patterning semiconductor, insulator, and gatelines with single mask

摘要

A liquid crystal display device can be fabricated through simplified processes, and provide a high product yield and excellent picture displaying characteristic. The liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate having thereon a plurality of drain wirings, a plurality of gate wirings crossing the plurality of drain wirings in a matrix array, a plurality of thin film transistors disposed in the vicinity of these crossings, and a plurality of pixel electrodes connected to the thin film transistors, respectively. A second substrate is disposed in opposing relation to the first substrate, and a liquid crystal layer is sandwiched between these substrates. Each terminal portion of the plurality of drain wirings and plurality of gate wirings is constructed with a metallic film covered with a transparent conductive film.
