Abstract: The present invention provides an array substrate and a method for manufacturing the same. The array substrate comprises a substrate and a plurality of gate lines parallel to each other and a plurality of data lines parallel to each other formed on the substrate, the gate lines intersecting the data lines to define a plurality of pixel region arranged in a matrix, each pixel region comprising a thin film transistor, a pixel electrode and a thin film diode. With respect to each pixel region in a row, the pixel electrode is connected with the gate line in the present row through the thin film transistor and is connected with the gate line in a previous row through the thin film diode.

Abstract: Provided is a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT LCD), comprising a color filter substrate and an array substrate disposed opposite to each other; wherein the array substrate comprises a base substrate, data lines and gate lines formed on the base substrate, and an insulating protective layers on the data lines or gate lines; the color filter substrate and the array substrate are assembled with each other in a peripheral portion with sealant mixed with metal micro-balls at a ratio, and a top conductive film is formed on the insulating protective layer above the data lines or gate lines below the sealant in the peripheral portion.

Abstract: A mask comprises a channel region half-exposure mask structure, a drain mask structure, and a source mask structure, wherein the channel region half-exposure mask structure comprises a channel region peripheral half-exposure mask structure, which extends from a portion that corresponds to a channel region of the TFT and is outside the portion. According to the present invention, problems such as a connection of the source/drain and a disconnection of the active layer in the channel region can be effectively prevented.
