Abstract:
1. A fabricating method of a liquid crystal display device, comprising: forming a gate pattern having a double layered structure including a transparent first conductive layer and an opaque second conductive layer on a substrate, and a common pattern having a common line of the double layered structure and a common electrode formed of the first conductive layer using a first mask; forming a gate insulating film on the gate pattern and the common pattern; forming a semiconductor pattern on the gate insulating film, and a source/drain pattern having a data line, a source electrode and a drain electrode on the semiconductor pattern using a second mask; forming a passivation film on the source/drain pattern, and a contact hole exposing the drain electrode using a third mask; and forming a pixel electrode connected to the drain electrode through the contact hole using a fourth mask, wherein a horizontal field is formed with the common electrode, wherein a line width of the first conductive layer of the common line is wider than a portion of the common line overlapped by the pixel electrode.
