Abstract:
An exposure mask includes a first transmission portion, a second transmission portion, and a blocking portion. The first transmission portion is configured to, when illuminated with light, transmit the light at a first energy level. The first transmission portion is disposed in association with formation of a first contact hole in an underlying layer. The second transmission portion is configured to, when illuminated with the light, transmit the light at a second energy level. The second transmission portion is disposed in association with formation of a second contact hole in the underlying layer. The blocking portion is configured to block the light, and is disposed in association with a boundary region between a first region and a second region of the underlying layer. The second transmission portion is further configured to enable the second contact hole to be formed deeper into the underlying layer than the first contact hole.

Abstract:
A thin film transistor substrate includes a gate electrode on a base substrate, an active pattern on the gate electrode, a source electrode on a first end of the active pattern, a drain electrode on a second end of the active pattern, an organic insulation layer on the source electrode and the drain electrode, and a transparent electrode contacting the drain electrode through a contact opening in the organic insulation layer. The drain electrode is spaced from the source electrode. The organic insulation layer includes a first thickness portion around the contact opening and a second thickness portion adjacent to the first thickness portion. The second thickness portion has a thickness greater than that of the first thickness portion.

Abstract:
A photo mask includes a transparent substrate and a mask pattern. The mask pattern is disposed on the transparent substrate. The mask pattern includes a blocking portion for blocking light and a transmitting portion for transmitting the light. The transmitting portion is adjacent to the blocking portion. The blocking portion includes a first blocking layer, a photo guide layer and a second blocking layer. The first blocking layer is disposed on the transparent substrate. The first blocking layer transmits a portion of the light. The first blocking layer includes a plurality of blocking patterns including a first blocking material. The photo guide layer is disposed on the first blocking layer. The photoguide layer guides the transmitted portion of the light to a side surface of the photoguide layer. The second blocking layer reflects the transmitted portion of the light.

Abstract:
A method of forming a metal pattern is disclosed. In the method, a metal layer is formed on a base substrate. A photoresist composition is coated on the metal layer to form a coating layer. The photoresist composition includes a binder resin, a photo-sensitizer, a mercaptopropionic acid compound and a solvent. The coating layer is exposed to a light. The coating layer is partially removed to form a photoresist pattern. The metal layer is patterned by using the photoresist pattern as a mask.
