Liquid crystal display panel of line on glass type and method of fabricating the same

A method of fabricating a line on glass type liquid crystal display panel including a picture display part having a plurality of liquid crystal cells, each of which is arranged at each intersection area between gate lines and data lines, and line on glass type signal lines provided at an outer area of the picture display part by a line on glass system to apply driving signals required for drive integrated circuits for driving the gate lines, said method comprising the steps of:

• forming a gate metal pattern of the line on glass type signal lines, along with the gate electrode and the gate lines of a thin film transistor, by depositing a gate metal onto a lower substrate and then patterning the gate metal;
• coating a gate insulating film and forming an active layer of the thin film transistor by depositing a semiconductor material and then patterning the semiconductor metal;
• forming source/drain electrodes and data lines of the thin film transistor, by depositing a source/drain metal and then patterning the source/drain metal;
• coating a gate protective film and forming at least one contact hole for exposing pads of the gate lines and the data lines, the drain electrode of the thin film transistor, and pads of gate metal pattern of the line on glass type signal line;
• and
• forming a pixel electrode connected to the drain electrode, a protective electrode connected to the pads of the gate line and the data line, and a transparent conductive material pattern, overlapping the gate metal pattern of the line on glass type signal line, connected to the pads of the line on glass signal lines by depositing a transparent conductive material and then patterning the transparent conductive material.
