Patent ID: 7531376

Claim:
A fabricating method of an array substrate for a transflective liquid crystal display device, comprising: forming a gate line on a substrate having a display portion and a surrounding portion; forming a gate insulating layer covering the gate line;. forming a data line on the gate insulating layer; forming a gate pad and a data pad within the surrounding portion, the gate pad connected to the gate line and the data pad connected to the data line; forming a switching device connected to the gate and data lines; forming a reflective electrode within the display portion and connected to the switching device; forming a sealant within the surrounding portion; forming a reflective plate within the surrounding portion and beneath and overlapping the sealant, wherein the reflective plate is disposed exclusively only within a first region opposite to a second region where the gate and data pads are disposed, and wherein the reflective plate surrounds only two sides of the display portion; forming a passivation layer on the reflective electrode and the reflective plate; and forming a transmissive electrode on the passivation layer and connected to the reflective electrode.
