Liquid crystal display and fabricating method thereof

A method of fabricating an LCD having first and second transistors for a driving circuit and a third transistor for a pixel array on a substrate, the method comprising the steps of:

• forming an active layer for each of the first, second and third transistors on the substrate;
• formning a gate insulating layer and a gate electrode on each respective active layer of the first, se cond and third transistors;
• forming a metal layer on a first portion of each active layer of the first and the second transistors, the first portion excluding a second portion of each active layer adjacent each gate electrode of the first and the second transistors;
• forming source and drain regions for each of the first, second and third transistors using each respective gate electrode of the first, second and third transistors as a mask;
• and
• crystallizing each active layer of the first and the second transistors, the crystallizing being influenced by the metal layer.
