Patent ID: 7102168

Claim:
A thin film transistor array panel for a display, comprising: a gate conductor formed on an insulating substrate and including a gate line and a gate electrode connected to the gate line; a gate insulating layer covering the gate conductor; a semiconductor pattern formed on the gate insulating layer; a data conductor formed at least on the semiconductor pattern, the data conductor including a source electrode, a drain electrode separated from the source electrode, and a data line connected to the source electrode; a color filter having a first aperture exposing at least a portion of the drain electrode, wherein the color filter directly contacts a portion of the semiconductor pattern between the source electrode and the drain electrode; a passivation layer covering the color filter and having a first contact hole exposing at least a portion of the drain electrode, the first contact hole located within the first aperture; and a pixel electrode formed on the passivation layer and connected to the drain electrode via the first contact hole.
