Patent ID: 7989813

Claim:
A display apparatus comprising: a substrate; a first insulating layer formed on top of the substrate and having an upper surface comprising a concavo-convex area comprising one or more concave features and one or more convex features and having one or more side surfaces adjacent to the upper surface; a gate electrode formed on top of the substrate and including a gate electrode forming material; a first storage electrode formed of and thus including the same gate electrode forming material as included in the gate electrode, the first storage electrode overlaying the concavo-convex area of the upper surface and at least one of the side surfaces of the first insulating layer; a second insulating layer formed on top of the gate electrode and on top of the first storage electrode; a semiconductor layer formed on top of the second insulating layer and over the gate electrode; a source electrode formed on the semiconductor layer; a drain electrode formed on the semiconductor layer; and a third insulating layer formed on top of the source electrode, the drain electrode, and the semiconductor layer.
