Patent ID: 7414697

Claim:
A thin film transistor substrate with a circuit repair feature in a liquid crystal display, the substrate comprising: pixel electrodes; data lines adjacent to each of two opposed sides of the pixel electrodes for applying data signals to the pixel electrodes via thin film transistors on the substrate; gate lines disposed substantially perpendicular to said data lines for applying gate signals to the thin film transistors; and a plurality of gate dummy patterns, wherein a first gate dummy pattern is located beneath only one side of a data line and running parallel to the data line and also located below only one side of a pixel electrode that is located adjacent to the one side of the data line, a second gate dummy pattern is located beneath only the other side of the data line and running parallel to the data line and also located below only one side of a pixel electrode that is located adjacent to the other side of the data line, the first and second gate dummy patterns being spaced from one another along their length, and wherein the gate dummy patterns are physically located separate and apart from the gate lines.
