ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a thin film transistor (TFT) for a liquid crystal display (LCD) and a method for manufacturing the same that allows the number of photomasks used in a photolithography process to be decreased as compared to conventional methods. A passivation film is formed as a single layered organic insulating film, and the number of needed exposure steps is reduced, so as to decrease the number of needed photomask sheets and thereby improve the efficiency of the TFT production process. Applications of the disclosed method include reflection and transmission composite type LCDs as well as a reflection type LCD.
