Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention disclose a liquid crystal display (LCD) and a method of manufacturing the same. The LCD may have a display area and a peripheral area. An organic layer of the peripheral area may be patterned using a half-tone mask, and a protrusion member may be formed in the peripheral area. Accordingly, the thin film transistor array panel and the corresponding substrate may be prevented from being temporary adhered in the peripheral area such that the density of the liquid crystal molecules filled in the peripheral area may be uniformly maintained and the display quality of the liquid crystal display may be improved.

Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention relate to a thin film transistor and a manufacturing method of a display panel, and include forming a gate line including a gate electrode on a substrate, forming a gate insulating layer on the gate electrode, forming an intrinsic semiconductor on the gate insulating layer, forming an extrinsic semiconductor on the intrinsic semiconductor, forming a data line including a source electrode and a drain electrode on the extrinsic semiconductor, and plasma-treating a portion of the extrinsic semiconductor between the source electrode and the drain electrode to form a protection member and ohmic contacts on respective sides of the protection member. Accordingly, the process for etching the extrinsic semiconductor and forming an inorganic insulating layer for protecting the intrinsic semiconductor may be omitted such that the manufacturing process of the display panel may be simplified, manufacturing cost may be reduced, and productivity may be improved.

Abstract:
In one embodiment, a display panel includes a substrate and a gate driver disposed on the substrate. The gate driver comprises a wiring unit which receives signals and a circuit unit which outputs driving signals in response to the signals received from the wiring unit. The circuit unit comprises a shift register and a shift register wiring connected to the shift register. The wiring unit comprises first through n-th signal lines (n is a natural number greater than two) arranged sequentially adjacent to the shift register. The first line is located farthest from the shift register and the n-th signal line is closest from the shift register. Further, the first signal line is electrically connected to the shift register by a first connection line that comprises a first contact portion connected to the first signal line and a second contact portion connected to the shift resistor wiring.
