Method of forming a fine pattern, display substrate, and method of manufacturing the same using the method of forming a fine pattern

A display substrate, comprising:

• a base substrate;
• a polarizing layer on the base substrate and configured to polarize light, the polarizing layer having a first fine pattern extending in a first direction, a second fine pattern having portions disposed between adjacent portions of the first fine patterns and extending in the first direction, and a polymer pattern filling a space between the first and second fine patterns;
• a switching element connected to a data line and a gate line that are formed on the polarizing layer;
• and
• a pixel electrode connected to the switching element.

A method of manufacturing a display substrate, the method comprising:

• forming a polarizing layer on a base substrate, the polarizing layer including a first fine pattern extending in a first direction, a second fine pattern having portions disposed between adjacent portions of the first fine pattern and extending in the first direction, and a polymer pattern filling a space between the first and second fine patterns;
• patterning a gate metal layer and a data metal layer that are formed over the polarizing layer, so as to form a gate line, a data line and a switching element connected to the gate line and the data line;
• and
• patterning a pixel electrode layer formed over the switching element, so as to form a pixel electrode connected to the switching element.
