1. A method of fabricating a thin film transistor array panel comprising:
forming a gate line on a substrate;
forming a gate insulating layer on the gate line;
forming a semiconductor layer on the gate insulating layer;
forming a data line having a first conductive layer and a second conductive layer, the first conductive layer containing a Mo alloy and the second conductive layer containing Cu, and
performing a nitrogen treatment so that an alloying element in the first conductive layer forms a nitride layer.
