A method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display includes the following steps. First, source/drain and a bottom electrode are formed over a color filter substrate with a color filter layer. The next step forms source/drain junction regions over the source/drain. A channel region is also formed between the source/drain in this step. A gate dielectric layer and a gate are formed over the channel region and the source/drain junction regions in this step as well. Moreover, a plurality of stack layers and an upper electrode are formed over the bottom electrode in this step, too. Then, a pixel electrode is formed to electrically connect one of the source/drain and the bottom electrode. Then, a passivation layer pattern is formed to cover the source/drain, the gate, the upper electrode and the bottom electrode by backside exposure. Finally, a plurality of steps are performed to finish the liquid crystal display.
