Abstract:
1. An array substrate for a liquid crystal display (LCD) device, comprising: a substrate having a display region and a non-display region at periphery portions of the display region, the non-display region including first, second, third and fourth regions; a plurality of gate lines parallel to the second and fourth regions, the plurality of gate lines including a first gate line closest to the second region and a second gate line closest to the fourth region; a plurality of data lines parallel to the first and third regions and crossing the plurality of gate lines to define a plurality of pixel regions in the display region, the plurality of data lines including a first data line closest to the first region; and a light-shielding portion corresponding to the non-display region and disposed at the same layer as at least one of the gate line and the data line, the light-shielding portion including first, second, third and fourth portions corresponding to the first, second, third and fourth regions, respectively, wherein the first portion includes a first pattern extended from each gate line to adjacent gate line and formed of the same material as the plurality of gate lines, and the first pattern is spaced apart from the adjacent gate line by a predetermined space, and wherein a second pattern is extended from the first data line and covering the predetermined space between the first pattern and the adjacent gate line, wherein the first pattern is disposed at the same layer as the plurality of gate lines, and the second pattern is disposed at the same layer as the first data line.
