Patent ID: 7396765

Claim:
A method of fabricating a liquid crystal display device, comprising: forming first and second conductive layers on a substrate; forming a photo-resist pattern on the second conductive layer; patterning the second conductive layer and the first conductive layer using the photo-resist pattern as a mask, wherein an edge of the patterned first conductive layer is located inside an edge of the patterned second conductive layer; ashing the photo-resist pattern so as to reduce the photo-resist pattern remaining on the second conductive layer after patterning the second conductive layer and the first conductive layer; etching at least one lateral part of the patterned second conductive layer using the ashed photo-resist pattern as a mask; and removing the remaining photo-resist pattern, wherein patterning the second conductive layer and the first conductive layer includes; etching the second conductive layer using a first wet etching process; and etching the first conductive layer using a second wet etching process.
