  • Patent number: 6798442
    Abstract: A gate wire including a gate line extending in the horizontal direction, and a gate electrode is formed on an insulating substrate. A gate insulating layer is formed on the gate wire and covers the same. A semiconductor pattern is formed on the gate insulating layer 30, and formed on the semiconductor pattern are a data wire having a data line in the vertical direction, a source electrode, a drain electrode separated from the source electrode opposite the source electrode with respect to the gate electrode, and an align pattern located on both sides of the data line. A passivation layer is formed on the data wire and the align pattern, and has contact holes exposing the drain electrode and an opening exposing the substrate between the data line and the align pattern. Here, the align pattern adjacent to the data line is exposed through the opening, and the semiconductor pattern and the gate insulating layer are under-cut.

  • Publication number: 20030197177
    Abstract: A conductive layer, including a lower layer made of refractory metal such as chromium, molybdenum, and molybdenum alloy and an upper layer made of aluminum or aluminum alloy, is deposited and patterned to form a gate wire including a gate line, a gate pad, and a gate electrode on a substrate. At this time, the upper layer of the gate pad is removed using a photoresist pattern having different thicknesses depending on position as etch mask. A gate insulating layer, a semiconductor layer, and an ohmic contact layer are sequentially formed. A conductive material is deposited and patterned to form a data wire including a data line, a source electrode, a drain electrode, and a data pad. Next, a passivation layer is deposited and patterned to form contact holes respectively exposing the drain electrode, the gate pad, and the data pad.

  • Patent number: 6307216
    Abstract: Disclosed are ring-shaped gate wires and redundancy lines formed on a substrate so that defects due to disconnection of data lines can be readily repaired. The redundancy line is formed in a unit of a pixel, located outside the gate wire and divided into two portions. A gate insulating film is formed thereon, and data lines are formed thereon. Each of the data line overlaps the redundancy line and intersects a portion of the gate wire. A passivation film is formed on the data lines and transparent conductive connect patterns are formed thereon. The transparent connect pattern intersects two adjacent pixels and overlaps the ends of the redundancy lines facing each other. Since the end portions of the redundancy lines are bent out from the direction of the data line, it is not required that the connect pattern overlaps the data line.
