A thin film transistor array panel includes an insulating substrate, a
gate wire formed on the insulating substrate. A gate insulating layer
covers the gate wire. A semiconductor pattern is formed on the gate
insulating layer. A data wire having source electrodes, drain electrodes
and data lines is formed on the gate insulating layer and the
semiconductor pattern. A protective layer is formed on the data wire.
Pixel electrodes connected to the drain electrode via contact holes are
formed on the protective layer. The gate wire and the data wire are made
of Ag alloy containing Ag and an additive including at least one selected
from Zn, In, Sn and Cr.
