Patent ID: 8355089

Claim:
A method for fabricating an array substrate for a liquid crystal display device, the method comprising: forming an active pattern as a lower layer to have a plurality of triangular sawteeth patterns and an inclined angle at both sides on a substrate; forming a first insulating layer on the substrate on which the active pattern is formed; forming a gate electrode as an upper layer on the active pattern on which the first insulating layer is formed, the gate electrode crossing the plurality of triangular sawteeth patterns of the active pattern; lengthening a flow path, within a void at an interface between the active pattern and the gate electrode, through which an etching solution is introduced by the plurality of triangular sawteeth patterns and the inclined angle at the both sides of the active pattern during the forming of the gate electrode; forming a second insulating layer on the substrate on which the gate electrode is formed; forming a source electrode and a drain electrode connected to the active pattern; forming a third insulating layer on the source electrode and the drain electrode; and forming a pixel electrode connected to the drain electrode.
