Thin film transistor array panel and manufacturing method thereof

A display device may include an insulating layer. The display device may further include a first field-generating electrode that overlaps the insulating layer. The display device may further include a second field-generating electrode that overlaps the first field-generating electrode and has a cutout. An exposed portion of the insulating layer may be exposed through the cutout and may be exposed between an edge (or boundary) of the first field-generating electrode and an end portion of the second field-generating electrode in a layout view of the display device.

Liquid crystal display

In a thin film transistor array panel and a method of manufacturing the same, a thin passivation layer is positioned between a first field generating electrode and a second field generating electrode. The thin passivation layer overlaps the first and second field generating electrodes. The thin passivation layer includes a transparent photosensitive organic material. When forming the first field generating electrode, the passivation layer is used as a photosensitive film. Accordingly, the passivation layer and the first field generating electrode may be formed using a same single photo-mask. Accordingly, the manufacturing cost of the thin film transistor array panel may be reduced.
