Abstract: Gate lines are formed on a substrate. A gate insulating layer, an intrinsic a-Si layer, an extrinsic a-Si layer, a lower film of Cr and an upper film of Al containing metal are sequentially deposited. A photoresist having thicker first portions on wire areas and thinner second portions on channel areas is formed on the upper film. The upper film on remaining areas are wet-etched, and the lower film and the a-Si layers on the remaining areas are dry-etched along with the second portions of the photoresist. The upper film, the lower film, and the extrinsic a-Si layer on the channel areas are removed. The removal of the upper film and the lower film on the channel areas are performed by wet etching, and the first portions of the photoresist are removed after the removal of the upper film on the channel areas.

Abstract: A thin film transistor array panel includes an insulating substrate, a gate wire formed on the insulating substrate. A gate insulating layer covers the gate wire. A semiconductor pattern is formed on the gate insulating layer. A data wire having source electrodes, drain electrodes and data lines is formed on the gate insulating layer and the semiconductor pattern. A protective layer is formed on the data wire. Pixel electrodes connected to the drain electrode via contact holes are formed on the protective layer. The gate wire and the data wire are made of Ag alloy containing Ag and an additive including at least one selected from Zn, In, Sn and Cr.

Abstract: In a method for fabricating a thin film transistor array substrate, a glass substrate undergoes an oxygen plasma treatment. A silver or silver alloy-based conductive layer is deposited onto the substrate, and patterned to thereby form a gate line assembly proceeding in the horizontal direction. The gate line assembly includes gate lines, gate electrodes, and gate pads. Thereafter, a silicon nitride-based gate insulating layer is deposited onto the substrate, and a semiconductor layer and an ohmic contact layer are sequentially formed on the gate insulating layer. The semiconductor layer and the ohmic contact layer are HF-treated. A silver alloy-based conductive layer is deposited onto the substrate, and patterned to thereby form a data line assembly. The data line assembly includes data lines crossing over the gate lines, source electrodes, drain electrodes, and data pads.
