Abstract: A method for forming a line of an LCD device includes sequentially depositing first and second metal layers on a glass substrate, forming a mask pattern on the second metal layer, performing a first wet-etch process using a mixed acid solution as an etchant on the first and second metal layers with the mask pattern, and performing a second wet-etch process using the mask pattern.

Abstract: A redundant electricity-conducting structure, and a method for making it, for use in a liquid crystal display ("LCD"). The LCD has a first layer and a second layer covering a portion of the first layer such that an edge is formed where the second layer starts. The redundant structure includes: a first conductor partially covering each of an area over the first layer and the second layer such that the first conductor must undergo a large change in surface direction where the conductor follows the edge contour of the second layer; and a redundant second conductor connected to and partially covering the first conductor at least in an area extending outside of an area under which is located the large change in surface direction.
