Summary:A method of fabricating an array substrate includes forming a gate line and a gate electrode; forming a gate insulating layer, an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer, an inorganic material insulating layer and a heat transfer layer on the gate line and the gate electrode; irradiating a laser beam onto the heat transfer layer to crystallize the intrinsic amorphous silicon layer into a polycrystalline silicon layer; removing the heat transfer layer; patterning the inorganic insulating material layer using a buffered oxide etchant to form an etch-stopper corresponding to the gate electrode forming an impurity-doped amorphous silicon layer and a metal layer on the etch-stopper and the polycrystalline silicon layer; patterning the metal layer to form a data line, a source electrode and a drain electrode and forming a pixel electrode on the passivation layer.
