Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides an array substrate and a manufacture method thereof. The array substrate, by locating both a black matrix and a color resist layer on the array substrate, and locating the color resist layer on the TFT layer prevents the bad influence to the color resist layer from the high temperature TFT process, and accordingly to make the liquid crystal panel with higher display quality. The manufacture method of the array substrate, first forms a black matrix on the substrate, and second implements TFT manufacture process on the black matrix, and then forms a color resist layer after the TFT manufacture. Accordingly, both the black matrix and the color resist layer manufactured on the array substrate can be achieved, and with forming the color resist layer after the TFT manufacture to prevent the bad phenomenon due to bubbles generated by the color resist volatilization from the high temperature TFT process, and accordingly to effectively make the liquid crystal panel with higher display quality and raise production yield.
