Abstract: In a method for manufacturing a display substrate, a thin film transistor is formed on a base substrate. The thin film transistor includes a gate electrode, an active pattern, a source electrode and a drain electrode. A first passivation layer is formed to cover the thin film transistor. A second passivation layer is formed on the first passivation layer. A photoresist pattern is formed to partially expose the second passivation layer. The first passivation layer and the second passivation layer are partially removed to form a contact hole exposing the drain electrode. A pixel electrode layer is formed on the second passivation layer, the drain electrode and the photoresist pattern. A portion of the pixel electrode layer and the second photoresist pattern are removed to form a pixel electrode. The portion of the pixel electrode layer is disposed on a top surface and a sidewall of the photoresist pattern.

Abstract: A mask may include a circuit area and a pixel area. The circuit area includes a circuit pattern. The pixel area includes a pixel pattern which is extended in a length direction and an assist pattern which is at an end portion of the pixel pattern and adjacent to the circuit area.

Abstract: A method of forming a metal pattern is disclosed. In the method, a metal layer is formed on a base substrate. A photoresist composition is coated on the metal layer to form a coating layer. The photoresist composition includes a binder resin, a photo-sensitizer, a mercaptopropionic acid compound and a solvent. The coating layer is exposed to a light. The coating layer is partially removed to form a photoresist pattern. The metal layer is patterned by using the photoresist pattern as a mask.
