Patent ID: 7428026

Claim:
A polysilicon LCD device, comprising: a substrate including a buffer layer; a polysilicon active layer formed on the substrate; a first insulating layer and a second insulating layer formed on the polysilicon active layer, the second insulating layer having a thickness greater than a thickness of the first insulating layer; source and drain electrodes formed on the second insulating layer and connected to the polysilicon active layer, and a gate electrode formed on the first insulating layer; a gate line diverging from the gate electrode including separated first and second portions; a data line diverging from the source electrode disposed between the separated first and second portions of the gate line; a passivation layer formed on the gate electrode, the source electrode, and the drain electrode; and a pixel electrode material formed on the passivation layer, wherein the pixel electrode material electrically interconnects the separated first and second portions of the gate line to each other.
