Abstract
A display panel and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. According to the present disclosure, one mask is used to form the planarization layer and the pixel defining layer, or to form the planarization layer, the pixel defining layer, and the spacer. Thus, each of the light-emitting units is disposed within the area covered by the anode, and light emitted from the light-emitting unit can be reflected by the anode and be focused. Therefore, the risk where display panel has color mixing problem is decreased, and the intensity of light emitted therefrom is enhanced.
