Structure of a liquid crystal display and the method of manufacturing the same
First Claim
1. A method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display, the method comprising:
- providing a substrate including a source pad region;
forming a gate bus line on the substrate;
forming an insulating layer on the gate bus line;
forming a dummy source pad located substantially at an area of the source pad region on the insulating layer; and
forming a source bus line and a source pad arranged to cover the dummy source pad.

Abstract
An active panel of a liquid crystal display having a thin film transistor and a pixel electrode arranged in a matrix pattern has a double gate us line. On a substrate, a gate bus line, a gate electrode and a gate pad are formed using a first metal such as aluminum having low electrical resistance and a second metal such as chromium having surface stability. Then, a dummy source bus line and a dummy source pad are formed prior to forming a source bus line and a source pad so as to eliminate line disconnection due to the cracks thereof and to thereby reduce the defects of the active panel and the increase production yield of the manufacturing process.
