Array substrate, method of manufacturing the same and liquid crystal display panel having the same

A method of manufacturing an array substrate, the method comprising:

• forming a gate line on the substrate, wherein the gate line is extended in a first direction;
• forming a gate electrode extended from the gate line;
• forming a storage electrode part on the substrate, wherein the storage electrode part includes at least one side formed at an angle of about forty degrees to about fifty degrees with respect to an alignment direction;
• forming a channel part on the gate electrode;
• forming a data line on the substrate, wherein the data line is extended in a second direction;
• forming a source electrode extended from the data line and forming a drain electrode spaced apart from the source electrode;
• and
• forming a pixel electrode electrically connected to the drain electrode.

A liquid crystal display panel comprising:

• a first substrate;
• a liquid crystal layer operated in an optically compensated birefringence mode;
• and
• a second substrate coupled to the first substrate, the liquid crystal layer being formed between the second substrate and first substrate,
• the second substrate comprising:
• a switching device in a pixel area;
• a pixel electrode electrically connected to the switching device;
• and
• a storage electrode part formed adjacent to the switching device and partially overlapping with the pixel portion, the storage electrode part including at least one side formed at an angle of about forty degrees to about fifty degrees with respect to an alignment direction of the liquid crystal layer.
