The present disclosure provides an array substrate and a manufacturing method of the array substrate. In the manufacturing method of the array substrate, during performing a first wet etching and a second wet etching on a second metal layer, the wet etching is stopped when a copper conductive layer is merely etched completely.

Meanwhile, an entire CD loss of the second metal layer can be reduced, and an aperture ratio can be improved.
