THIN FILM TRANSISTOR ARRAY PANEL AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
First Claim
1. A thin film transistor (TFT) array panel comprising:
- a substrate;
a first signal line disposed on the substrate;
a first insulating layer disposed on the first signal line;
a second signal line disposed on the first insulating layer;
a second insulating layer disposed on the second signal line, the second insulating layer comprising an organic layer;
a connection bridge disposed on the second insulating layer, the connection bridge connecting the first signal line with the second signal line;
an overcoat disposed on the connection bridge;
a first contact hole formed in the first and second insulating layers, the first contact hole exposing a portion of the first signal line; and
a second contact hole formed in the second insulating layer, the second contact hole exposing a portion of the second signal line,wherein the connection bridge connects the first and second signal lines through the first and second contact holes.
