Abstract

A liquid crystal display panel includes an upper substrate, a lower substrate facing the upper substrate, a gate line and a data line on an upper surface of the lower substrate facing the upper substrate, the gate line and the data line cross each other to define a cell area, a pixel electrode formed in the cell area, a dummy source/drain electrode pattern over the gate line, and a ball spacer within the dummy source/drain electrode pattern, the ball spacer maintaining a cell gap between the upper substrate and the lower substrate.
