Abstract
A method is provided for fabricating an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display. The method includes forming a thin film transistor (TFT) substrate including a first metal layer and a second metal layer. The method also includes depositing a first passivation layer over the second metal layer, and forming a third metal layer over a channel region and a storage capacitor region. The third metal layer is configured to connect to a first portion of the second metal layer that is configured to connect to the first metal layer in a first through-hole through a gate insulator and the first passivation layer. The method further includes depositing a second passivation layer over the third metal layer, and forming an anode layer over the second passivation layer. The anode is configured to connect to a second portion of the third metal layer that is configured to connect to the second metal layer in a second through-hole of the first passivation layer and the second passivation layer.
