Abstract

An LCD includes a first substrate, a heating layer formed on the first substrate, an insulating layer having a first opening formed on the heating layer, at least one switching device, two contact pads formed on the insulating layer, and respectively electrically connected to the scan line and the data line, a capacitor, a bridge electrode formed in the first opening, a passivation layer covering the switching device and the capacitor, a pixel electrode formed on the passivation layer and electrically connected to the drain of the switching device, a second substrate having a common electrode disposed on the first substrate, and a liquid crystal layer. The source of the switching device is connected to the data line. The passivation layer has a plurality of second openings respectively exposing the contact pads and the bridge electrode, wherein the bridge electrode is electrically disconnected from the contact pads.
