Abstract:
1. An array substrate for an active matrix type liquid crystal display (LCD) device, said device comprising: a substrate; a gate line above the substrate; a gate pad at one end of said gate line such that a gate pad contact hole is formed to expose said substrate; a first insulating layer on said gate line; a data line over said first insulating layer to form a crossing point between said gate and data lines and said data line extending into a direction of said gate line to form a source electrode, and wherein a data pad is formed at one end of said data line; a drain electrode formed space apart from said source electrode over said gate line, said drain electrode also extending into a rectangular region defined by said gate and data lines; and a pixel electrode formed over the structure and electrically connected to said source and drain electrodes, gate pad, and data pad, and wherein said pixel electrode is extended over a portion of said gate line as a capacitor electrode of a storage capacitor such that said storage capacitor includes said portion of said gate line, said extended portion of said pixel electrode, and said first insulating layer disposed inbetween.
