Abstract

See full text

Disclosed are an exposure mask capable of improving uniformity of a resist film thickness of a half film thickness part and reducing a display defect to increase a manufacturing yield, a method of manufacturing a TFT substrate using the exposure mask and a liquid crystal display comprising the TFT substrate manufactured by the method and having no display defect. The exposure mask includes a light-shielding pattern on a transparent substrate in which a gray-tone area is provided to at least a part of the light-shielding pattern, the gray-tone area having an oblong light-shielding pattern having a width of a submarginal resolution of an exposure apparatus and sandwiched between oblong slit-type transmissive patterns having a width of the submarginal resolution, and a light-shielding rate of the gray-tone area is gradually reduced toward a center of the oblong light-shielding pattern from longitudinal ends thereof.
