Patent ID: 7184113

Claim:
An array substrate for a transflective liquid crystal display device, comprising: a transflective liquid crystal display substrate; a data line and a gate line on the substrate, the data line and the gate line defining a pixel region; a thin film transistor connected to the data line and the gate line, the thin film transistor including source and drain electrodes, an ohmic contact layer on the source and drain electrodes, an active layer partially disposed on the ohmic contact layer and a gate electrode over the active layer, wherein the ohmic contact layer is disposed over the entire top surface of the source and drain electrodes, wherein the source electrode, drain electrode, and active layer are in contact with the substrate, and wherein the source electrode and the drain electrode include metal; a reflective plate at the pixel region, the reflective plate having a transmissive hole; and a pixel electrode over the reflective plate, the pixel electrode being connected to the drain electrode.
