Liquid Crystal Display Device and Method for Manufacturing the Same

A method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display (LCD) device including a pad area with a pixel pad formed therein and a contact area with a pixel bar formed therein, the method comprising:

• forming a first passivation layer in the pad area and the contact area, and removing a portion of the first passivation layer to form a first contact hole;
• forming a lower metal inside the first contact hole in the pad area, inside the first contact hole in the contact area, and on the first passivation layer in the contact area;
• forming a second passivation layer to cover the first passivation layer and the lower metal;
• removing a portion of the second passivation layer overlapping the lower metal in the pad area and removing another portion of the second passivation layer overlapping the pixel bar in the contact area to form a second contact hole;
• and
• coating a transparent conductive material on the pad area to form a pixel electrode, and coating a transparent conductive material on the contact area to form a contact pattern,
• wherein the pixel pad and the pixel bar are connected with the contact pattern and the lower metal.
