Patent ID: 8416359

Claim:
An array substrate for a liquid crystal display device, comprising: first and second gate lines on a substrate; a data line crossing the first and second gate lines to define first and second pixel regions, respectively; a first thin film transistor connected to the first gate line and the data line; first and second pixel electrodes in the first and second pixel regions, respectively, the first pixel electrode connected to the first thin film transistor; and a first repair pattern crossing over the first gate line, the first repair pattern electrically connected to one of the first thin film transistor and the second pixel electrode, wherein the first thin film transistor includes a gate electrode, a semiconductor layer, a source electrode and a drain electrode, and the first pixel electrode is connected to the drain electrode, wherein the first repair pattern is electrically connected to the second pixel electrode and overlaps the drain electrode, and wherein the first repair pattern is formed of the same layer and the same material as the second pixel electrode.
