Abstract
A thin film panel is provided, which includes a first signal line and a second signal line crossing the first signal line and formed on a different layer from the first signal line. The second signal line includes an expansion having an enlarged area and at least one cutout, and is disposed adjacent to a crossing region where the second signal line crosses the first signal line.
Claims19
A thin film panel comprising:
- a first signal line;
- a second signal line crossing the first signal line and formed on a different layer from the first signal line, wherein the second signal line includes a divided portion that is divided into at least two portions, and wherein the divided portion is adjacent to a crossing region where the second signal line crosses the first signal line;
- a first insulating layer formed between the first signal line and the second signal line;
- a second insulating layer formed on the second signal line, wherein the second insulating layer has at least one first contact hole exposing a portion of the divided portion of the second signal line;
- and
- a connector assistant formed adjacent to the crossing region;
- wherein the second signal line is electrically connected to the first signal line through the connector assistant;
- and
- wherein the first and second insulating layers have a second contact hole exposing a portion of the first signal line, and the connector assistant electrically connects the first signal line to the second signal line through the first and second contact holes.
