Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display comprising the steps of:coating a passivation layer on a substrate having a data line, a gate line and a switching element; forming a photoresist on the passivation layer so that the photoresist has a predetermined shape and a thickness that is more than about 1.2 times that of the passivation layer; patterning the passivation layer according to the patterned photo resist to form a contact hole exposing one electrode of the switching element and so that a portion of the photoresist remains on the entire surface of the unetched passivation layer after the patterning step is completed; removing the portion of the photoresist remaining on the passivation layer; and forming a pixel electrode on the passivation layer to contact the electrode of the switching element through the contact hole.
