Thin-film transistor (tft) array substrate, manufacturing method thereof, and display device

Abstract

A method of manufacturing a thin-film transistor (TFT) array substrate, including: forming a gate layer, a gate insulating layer, an oxide semiconductor layer, a source/drain electrode layer and a pixel electrode layer on a base substrate. The step of forming the source/drain electrode layer and the pixel electrode layer includes: forming a transparent conductive film and a first metallic film on the oxide semiconductor layer in sequence, to form a stack layer of the transparent conductive film and the first metallic film, in which the transparent conductive film contacts the oxide semiconductor layer; and forming source electrodes, drain electrodes and pixel electrodes by a single patterning process on the stack layer of the transparent conductive film and the first metallic film. One patterning process is saved, the production time is shortened, and the production cost is reduced.
