Patent ID: 7760309

Claim:
A method of fabricating a liquid crystal display device, comprising: providing first and second substrates; forming a gate line and a gate electrode having a double layer structure including a first transparent conductive layer and a second opaque conductive layer, and a pixel electrode having only a single layer of the first transparent conductive layer using a first mask; forming a first insulation layer on the electrodes; forming a semiconductor pattern on the first insulation layer, a source/drain pattern having an upper storage electrode, a drain electrode, a source electrode, and a data line using a second mask, the gate and data lines defining a pixel region having a transmissive region and a reflective region; forming a second insulation layer on the source/drain pattern and a transmission hole penetrating from the second insulation layer to the first insulation layer in the transmissive region using a third mask; forming a reflective metal layer on the second insulation layer and the pixel electrode exposed through the transmission hole; forming a reflective electrode on the second insulation layer in the reflective region by etching the reflective metal layer using a fourth mask, the reflective electrode directly connecting the pixel electrode to the drain electrode and the storage electrode through the transmission hole in a transmission area; and forming a liquid crystal layer between the first and second substrates.
