A mask including a light-blocking area, a transparent area and a partial-transparent area is disclosed. The partial-transparent area protrudes from edges of the light-blocking area to admit some of the UV rays to pass through. In addition, a glass substrate and the manufacturing method thereof are disclosed. By arranging the partial-transparent area on the edges of the light-blocking, area, the mask is formed with the slope having the small angle after the lithography process. As such, in the etching process, the edge of the thin film is formed with the slope having the small angle, which contributes to the formation of the second thin film. The thin films are prevented from being fragmented around the slope and the ITO layer is also prevented from fragmented around the periphery of the through hole.
