Abstract
A display device which includes a substrate, a gate line formed on the substrate, a data line intersecting the gate line, and a thin film transistor having a gate electrode connected to the gate line, a source electrode which overlaps the gate electrode and is connected to the data line, and a drain electrode which overlaps the gate electrode. The overlapping area between the gate electrode and the drain electrode is larger than the overlapping area between the gate electrode and the source electrode.
