Abstract

An array substrate includes a substrate; gate lines over the substrate along a first direction; data lines over the substrate along a second direction and crossing the gate lines to define pixel regions; a thin film transistor at each crossing portion of the gate and data lines; an insulating layer covering the thin film transistor and having a flat top surface; a common electrode on the insulating layer all over the substrate; a common line on the common electrode; a passivation layer on the common line; and a pixel electrode on the passivation layer in each pixel region and connected to the thin film transistor, the pixel electrode including electrode patterns, wherein the passivation layer has a step height at a top surface of the passivation layer due to the plurality of common lines.
