    Abstract: Disclosed is a simplified method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display. A gate wire including a gate line, a gate pad, and a gate electrode are formed on a substrate. A gate insulating layer, a semiconductor layer, and an ohmic contact layer are sequentially deposited, and a photoresist layer is coated thereon. The photoresist layer is exposed to light through a mask and developed to form a photoresist pattern. At this time, a first portion of the photoresist pattern which is located between the source electrode and the drain electrode is thinner than a second portion which is located on the data wire, and the photoresist layer is totally removed on other parts. The thin portion is made by controlling the amount of irradiating light or by a reflow process to form a thin portion, and the amount of light is controlled by using a mask that has a slit, a small pattern smaller than the resolution of the exposure device, or a partially transparent layer. Next, the exposed portions of conductor layer are removed by wet etch or dry etch, and thereby the underlying ohmic contact layer is exposed. Then the exposed ohmic contact layer and the underlying semiconductor layer are removed by dry etching along with the first portion of the photoresist layer. The residue of the photoresist layer is removed by ashing. Source/drain electrodes are separated by removing the portion of the conductor layer at the channel and the underlying ohmic contact layer pattern. Then, the second portion of the photoresist layer is removed, and red, green, and blue color filters, a pixel electrode, a redundant gate pad, and a redundant data pad are formed.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a transmissive and reflective type LCD. In the LCD, a second substrate faces a first substrate. Liquid crystal layer is formed between the first and second substrate. A first polarizing plate is formed on outer surface of the first substrate. A second polarizing plate is formed on outer surface of the second substrate. A backlight is arranged at a rear side of the first polarizing plate. A transparent transflective film is arranged between the first polarizing plate and the backlight and has a plurality of layers where a first and a second layer each having different refractivity indexes are alternatively stacked. The transparent transflective film partially reflects and transmits incident light. By a restoring process occurring between the transflective film and the backlight, a predetermined amount of the incident light is transmitted through the transflective film repeatedly, so that transmissivity and light efficiency are enhanced.

    Abstract: A method of fabricating a thin film transistor array substrate for a liquid crystal display includes the step of forming a gate line assembly with gate lines, gate electrodes and gate pads. After laying a plurality of layers on the substrate, a photoresist film is deposited onto the layers. The photoresist film is first exposed to light at a first light exposing unit, and secondly exposed to light at a second light exposing unit such that the photoresist film has three portions of different thickness. The photoresist pattern, and some of the underlying layers are etched to form a data line assembly, a semiconductor pattern, and an ohmic contact pattern. The data line assembly includes data lines, source and drain electrodes, and data pads. The remaining photoresist film is removed, and a protective layer is formed on the substrate. The protective layer is etched together with the gate insulating layer to form first to third contact holes exposing the drain electrode, the gate pad and the data pad, respectively. Pixel electrodes, subsidiary gate and data pads are then formed.

    Abstract: A thin film transistor substrate for a liquid crystal display includes an insulating substrate, and a gate line assembly formed on the substrate. The gate line assembly has a double-layered structure with a lower layer exhibiting good contact characteristics with respect to indium tin oxide, and an upper layer exhibiting low resistance characteristics. A gate insulating layer, a semiconductor layer, a contact layer, and first and second data line layers are sequentially deposited onto the substrate with the gate line assembly. The first and second data line layers are patterned to form a data line assembly, and the contact layer is etched through the pattern of the data line assembly such that the contact layer has the same pattern as the data line assembly. A passivation layer is deposited onto the data line assembly, and a photoresist pattern is formed on the passivation layer by using a mask of different light transmissties mainly at a display area and a peripheral area. The passivation layer and the underlying layers are etched through the photoresist pattern to form a semiconductor pattern and contact windows. A pixel electrode, a supplemental gate pad and a supplemental data pad are then formed of indium tin oxide or indium zinc oxide. The gate and data line assemblies may be formed with a single layered structure. A black matrix and a color filter may be formed at the structured substrate before forming the pixel electrode, and an opening portion may be formed between the pixel electrode and the data line to prevent possible short circuits.
