Abstract
The present application provides a display panel. The display panel includes a thin film transistor layer, a pixel definition layer, and a spacer layer. The pixel definition layer includes first sub-pixel openings for arranging first-color sub-pixels. The spacer layer includes first spacer pillars distributed according to a first preset rule. The first spacer pillars and the first sub-pixel openings adjacent to the first spacer pillars are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. The first sub-pixel openings are arranged in at least two directions around the first spacer pillars adjacent to the first sub-pixel openings.
