Abstract
An array substrate includes a substrate and a plurality of pixel structures. At least one pixel structure includes a gate electrode, a gate insulating layer, a source electrode and a drain electrode, a patterned semiconductor layer, a first passivation layer, and a transparent conductive pattern disposed in a pixel region of the substrate. The patterned semiconductor layer includes a first semiconductor pattern and a second semiconductor pattern. The first semiconductor pattern substantially corresponds to the gate electrode and covers a portion of the source electrode and a portion of the drain electrode. The second semiconductor pattern covers a portion of the drain electrode. The first passivation layer is disposed on the patterned semiconductor layer and has a first opening exposing a portion of the second semiconductor pattern. The transparent conductive pattern is disposed on the first passivation layer and electrically connected to the second semiconductor pattern through the first opening.
