Abstract
The present application provides a display panel, a manufacturing method thereof, and a display device. The present application adopts a molybdenum/copper stackup to form a solder pad for bonding, which can effectively solve a problem of a poor bonding force between MTD and a soldering material in the prior art. Meanwhile, a bonding lead is made of titanium-molybdenum-nickel alloy/copper/titanium-molybdenum-nickel alloy stackup, which can reduce manufacturing processes of the display panel and reduce manufacturing costs.
