Patent ID: 7817218

Claim:
A method for fabricating an LCD device comprising: forming a gate line including a gate electrode on a substrate; forming a gate insulating layer on the substrate including the gate line; forming a data line substantially perpendicular to the gate line and defining a unit pixel region, wherein source and drain electrodes respectively overlap both sides of the gate electrode; forming an insulating organic resin on a portion of the gate insulating layer not including the gate electrode, the gate line, the data line, the source electrode, and the drain electrode, by exposure of the rear surface of the substrate, not using a mask, after forming the data line and the source and drain electrodes; forming an active layer on entire surfaces of the gate electrode, the gate line, the data line, the source electrode, and the drain electrode, except the organic resin; forming a passivation layer on an entire surface of the substrate including the data line; and forming a pixel electrode in the pixel region, wherein the pixel electrode contacts the drain electrode.
