A pull-up driving part maintains a signal of a first node at a high level by receiving a turn-on voltage in response to one of a previous stage or a vertical start signal. A pull-up part outputs a clock signal through an output terminal in response to the signal of the first node. A first holding part maintains a signal of a second node at a high level or a low level when the signal of the first node is respectively low or high. A second holding part maintains the signal of the first node and a signal of the output terminal at a ground voltage in response to the signal of the second node or a delayed and inverted clock signal.

Method of driving a gate line and gate drive circuit for performing the method

A gate driving circuit includes stages, the stages being cascaded and each including: a pull-up part which pulls up a gate voltage to a clock signal during a horizontal scanning period (1H); a carry part which pulls up a carry voltage to the clock signal during the horizontal scanning period (1H); a pull-up driving part connected to a control terminal (Q-node) common to the carry part and the pull-up part and which receives a previous carry voltage from a first previous stage to turn on the pull-up part and the carry part; and a ripple preventing part which prevents a ripple generated at a previous Q-node of a second previous stage based on a ripple generated at the Q-node of the carry part and the pull-up part.

A display substrate that has increased aperture ratio is presented. The display substrate includes a base substrate, a first metal pattern formed on the base substrate and a gate wiring and a gate electrode. A first insulating layer is formed on the base substrate covering the first metal pattern. A second metal pattern is formed on the first insulating layer including a data wiring crossing the gate wiring, a source electrode connected to the data wiring and a drain electrode separated from the source electrode. A second insulating layer is formed on the base substrate covering the second metal pattern. A transparent electrode is formed on the second insulating layer. An organic layer is formed on the transparent electrode, and a pixel electrode is formed on the organic layer being insulated with the transparent electrode, and contacted to the drain electrode. The organic layer may comprise red, green and blue color filters.

A gate line extending in a horizontal direction is formed on an insulating substrate, and a data line is formed perpendicular to the gate line defining a pixel of a matrix array. Pixel electrodes receiving image signals through the data line are formed in a pixel, and a thin film transistor having a gate electrode connected to the gate line, a source electrode connected to the data line, and a drain electrode connected to the pixel electrode is formed on the portion where the gate lines and the data lines intersect. A storage wire including a storage electrode line in the horizontal direction, a storage electrode connected to the storage electrode line, and at least one of the storage electrode connection portions connecting storage electrodes of neighboring pixels is formed in the same direction as the gate line. A redundant repair line overlaps and is insulated from the storage wire at one end and overlaps the storage wire or the gate wire of a neighboring pixel at the other end is formed in the same layer as the data wire. Also, a storage wire connection portion connecting the storage wires of a neighboring pixel is formed in the same layer as the pixel electrode. In this structure, if portions of the gate wire or the data wire are disconnected, the portions overlapping the disconnected wire, the storage wire, and the redundant repair line are shorted to repair an open wire defect.

A method for fabricating a thin film array substrate for a liquid crystal display includes steps of forming a gate line assembly and a common electrode line assembly on a first substrate. The gate line assembly includes a plurality of gate lines and gate pads, and the common electrode line assembly includes common signal lines and common electrodes. Thereafter, a gate insulating layer is formed on the first substrate, and a semiconductor pattern and an ohmic contact pattern are formed on the gate insulating layer. A data line assembly and pixel electrodes are then formed on the first substrate. The data line assembly includes a plurality of data lines, data pads, and source and drain electrodes. The pixel electrodes are connected to the drain electrodes while proceeding parallel to the common electrodes. A passivation layer is formed on the substrate. The passivation layer and the gate insulating layer are etched such that the gate pads and the data pads are exposed to the outside. At this time, the etching is performed after an assembly process where a second substrate is arranged to face the first substrate and assembled together and the passivation layer and the gate insulating layer are exposed outside of the second substrate.
