Color filter substrate, manufacturing method thereof and liquid crystal display
View Patent ↗Provided is a color filter substrate that comprises a substrate. A black matrix, a color filter layer, and a transparent conductive layer are formed on the substrate and the color filter layer is formed in a pixel area defined by the black matrix. A metal conductivity-enhanced layer is formed above and/or below the transparent conductive layer and contacts with the transparent conductive layer in an area corresponding to the black matrix.

a substrate;
a black matrix, a color filter layer, and a transparent conductive layer formed on the substrate, the color filter layer being formed in a pixel area defined by the black matrix; and
a metal conductivity-enhanced layer, formed above and/or below the transparent conductive layer and contacting with the transparent conductive layer, in an area corresponding to the black matrix;
wherein the transparent conductive layer is formed on the substrate, and the black matrix and the color filter layer are formed on the transparent conductive layer.
2. The color filter substrate of claim 1 , wherein the metal conductivity-enhanced layer comprises copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), molybdenum (Mo), zinc (Zn), silver (Ag), or an alloy thereof.
3. The color filter substrate of claim 1 , wherein the transparent conductive layer is indium tin oxide, indium zinc oxide, aluminum zinc oxide, or zinc oxide.
4. The color filter substrate of claim 1 , wherein the color filter layer partially overlaps with the black matrix.
5. A liquid crystal display comprising a thin film transistor array substrate, the color filter substrate of claim 1 , and a liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween.
