  • Method for forming and apparatus including a liquid crystal display having shorting bar connector
    Patent number: 6128051
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display apparatus includes a first shorting bar connected to odd-numbered gate lines and a second shorting bar connected to even-numbered gate lines of TFTs. The first shorting bar is first formed such that it is connected to all of the even-numbered and odd-numbered gate lines. The odd-numbered gate lines are directly connected to the first shorting bar. The even-numbered gate lines are connected to the first shorting bar through the shorting bar connector. The second shorting bar formed on an insulating(passivation) layer is connected only to the even-numbered gate lines. Then the shorting bar connector connecting the even-numbered gate lines to the first shorting bar is removed by etching such that the first shorting bar is only connected to the odd-numbered gate lines and the second shorting bar is only connected to the even-numbered gate lines.
