Abstract:
1. A method of fabricating a touch sensor embedded liquid crystal display device, comprising the steps of: forming a gate metal pattern including gate electrodes of a pixel thin film transistor and first and second sensor thin film transistors on a substrate together with a gate line, a common line and first and second sensor gate lines; forming a common electrode connected to the common line; forming a gate insulating layer on the substrate having the gate metal pattern and the common electrode formed thereon; forming semiconductor layers of the pixel and first and second sensor thin film transistors on the gate insulating layer, respectively; forming a data metal pattern including source and drain electrodes of the pixel and first and second sensor thin film transistors on the gate insulating layer having the semiconductor layers formed thereon together with a data line, a power line and a readout line; forming a passivation layer to cover the data metal pattern; forming a plurality of contact holes in the passivation layer; forming a pixel electrode on the passivation layer to be connected to the drain electrode of the pixel thin film transistor via the contact hole to form a horizontal electric field with the common electrode; and forming a sensing electrode together with the gate line, the common electrode, or the pixel electrode, wherein the sensing electrode is an electrode of a sensing capacitor which directly forms the sensing capacitor with the touch object, the touch object being the other electrode of the sensing capacitor.
