Abstract
A method of fabricating a display device includes forming a thin-film transistor including a gate electrode, a source electrode and a drain electrode on a substrate, forming a first insulating layer and a second insulating layer on the thin-film transistor, forming a common electrode on the second insulating layer by depositing a common electrode material on the second insulating layer, plasma-treating a photoresist pattern on the common electrode material, and etching the common electrode material using the plasma-treated photoresist pattern as a mask, defining a contact hole in the second insulating layer which corresponds to the drain electrode using the plasma-treated photoresist pattern and the common electrode as a mask, forming a third insulating layer on the second insulating layer and the common electrode to expose the contact hole and the drain electrode and forming a pixel electrode connected to the drain electrode on the third insulating layer.
