Display substrate and method of manufacturing the same
A display substrate includes a base substrate; a first metal pattern disposed on the base substrate and comprising a first signal line and a first electrode electrically connected to the first signal line; and a buffer pattern disposed at a corner between a sidewall surface of the first metal pattern and the base substrate.
1. A display substrate, comprising:
a base substrate;
a first metal pattern disposed on the base substrate and comprising a first signal line and a first electrode electrically connected to the first signal line; and
a buffer pattern disposed at a corner between a sidewall surface of the first metal pattern and the base substrate and inclined to the sidewall surface,
wherein the buffer pattern comprises a first side portion contacting the sidewall surface, a second side portion connected to the first side portion and contacting the base substrate, and an inclined portion connecting the first side portion with the second side portion and forming a triangular shape by the inclined portion, the first side portion, and the second side portion.
2. The display substrate of claim 1 , wherein
the inclined portion has an inclination less than the sidewall surface has with respect to a surface of the base substrate.
3. The display substrate of claim 2 , wherein an angle of the inclined portion inclined with respect to the surface of the base substrate is greater than about 0° and less than or equal to about 50°.
4. The display substrate of claim 2 , wherein an angle of the sidewall surface inclined with respect to the surface of the base substrate is from about 10° to about 40° greater than an angle of the inclined portion inclined with respect to the surface of the base substrate.
5. The display substrate of claim 2 , wherein a height of the first side portion is greater than about 0% and less than or equal to about 80% of a height of the first metal pattern.
6. The display substrate of claim 2 , wherein the inclination of the inclined portion is uniform with respect to the surface of the base substrate.
7. The display substrate of claim 2 , wherein the inclination of the inclined portion with respect to the surface of the base substrate increases from the surface of the base substrate toward the sidewall surface.
8. The display substrate of claim 1 , further comprising:
a capping pattern disposed at the corner, wherein the capping pattern is disposed under the buffer pattern.
9. The display substrate of claim 8 , wherein a thickness of the capping pattern is uniform.
10. The display substrate of claim 1 , further comprising:
a capping layer to cover the first metal pattern,
wherein the buffer pattern is in contact with the capping layer at the corner.
11. The display substrate of claim 1 , wherein the buffer pattern comprises a silsesquioxane-based compound.
12. The display substrate of claim 1 , further comprising:
a pixel electrode electrically connected to the first signal line; and
a second metal pattern disposed on the base substrate, the first metal pattern and the buffer pattern, the second metal pattern comprising:
a second signal line crossing the first signal line to be electrically connected to the pixel electrode; and
a second electrode partially overlapping with the first electrode.
13. The display substrate of claim 1 , wherein the triangular shape is a scalene triangular shape.
14. The display substrate of claim 1 , wherein the buffer pattern inclined to the sidewall surface and an inclined angle of the buffer pattern is less than an inclined angle of the sidewall surface based on the base surface, and wherein the inclined angle of the buffer pattern and the inclined angle of the sidewall surface are each an acute angle.
15. The display substrate of claim 1 , wherein the inclined portion comprises a linear shape.
16. The display substrate of claim 1 , wherein the inclined portion comprises a concave shape.
