An array substrate of a liquid crystal display includes a gate line, a
data line crossing the gate line, a thin film transistor including a gate
electrode connected to the gate line, a semiconductor layer having first
and second sides, a source electrode contacting the first side of the
semiconductor layer and connected to the data line, and a drain electrode
contacting the second side of the semiconductor layer, a gate insulating
film provided between the gate line and the data line, an organic
protective film formed on the gate insulating film, a capacitor common
line provided on the organic protective film to overlap the gate line, an
upper insulating layer provided on the organic protective film, and a
pixel electrode provided on the upper insulating layer partially
overlapping the capacitor common line and the data line, the pixel
electrode connected to the drain electrode via a contact hole through the
upper insulating layer and the organic protective film.
