Abstract
An array substrate for an in-plane switching liquid crystal display device includes a substrate, a gate line and a data line on the substrate and crossing each other to define a pixel region, a thin film transistor adjacent to a crossing of the gate line and the data line, a common electrode and a pixel electrode in the pixel region and spaced apart from each other, and a conductive pattern between the common and pixel electrodes.
