In some embodiments, the display panel further includes a pixel defining layer 14, the pixel defining layer 14 being located between the driving array layer 12 and the light emitting element layer, the pixel defining layer 14 including: a plurality of first pixel openings 141 in the first display area AA1, a plurality of second pixel openings 142 in the second display area AA2, and a plurality of third pixel openings 143 in the transitional display area AA3.
At least a portion of each first light emitting element 131 is received in a corresponding one of the first pixel openings 141, at least a portion of each second light emitting element is received in a corresponding one of the second pixel openings 142, and at least a portion of each third light emitting element is received in a corresponding one of the third pixel openings 143. Wherein, the area of the third pixel opening 143 is smaller than the area of the second pixel opening 142, and the area difference between the third pixel opening 143 and the first pixel opening 141 is smaller than the area difference between the third pixel opening 143 and the second pixel opening 142.
According to the display panel 1 of the embodiment of the present invention, the area of the second pixel opening 142, the area of the first pixel opening 141, and the area of the third pixel opening 143 correspond to the light emitting area of the first light emitting element 131, the light emitting area of the second light emitting element 132, and the light emitting area of the third light emitting element 133, respectively. The area of the third pixel opening 143 is smaller than that of the second pixel opening 142, so that the light emitting area of the transitional display area AA3 is different from that of the second display area AA 2. The area difference between the third pixel opening 143 and the first pixel opening 141 is smaller than the area difference between the third pixel opening 143 and the second pixel opening 142, so that the light emitting area of the third light emitting element 133 is closer to the light emitting area of the first light emitting element 131. When the display panel 1 is in a display state, the light emitting effect of the third light emitting element 133 of the transitional display area AA3 is between the light emitting effect of the first light emitting element 131 and the light emitting effect of the second light emitting element 132, and the light emitting effect of the third light emitting element 133 is closer to the light emitting effect of the first light emitting element 131, so that the display effect difference among the second display area AA2, the transitional display area AA3 and the first display area AA1 is reduced, then the first photosensitive module 21 is arranged below the first display area AA1, and the second photosensitive module 22 is arranged below the transitional display area AA3, so that the uniformity of the display effect of the display module is improved to a certain extent.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the second light emitting elements 132 and the first light emitting elements 131 are aligned along a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to each other, and the third light emitting elements 133 and the first pixel circuits 121 are staggered along the first direction and the second direction perpendicular to each other. The area of the third light emitting element 133 is equal to the area of the first light emitting element 131, and the shape of the third light emitting element 133 is the same as the shape of the first light emitting element 131. That is, the area of the third pixel opening 143 is equal to the area of the first pixel opening 141, and the shape of the third pixel opening 143 is the same as the shape of the first pixel opening 141, so that the light emitting effect of the third light emitting element 133 of the transitional display area AA3 is almost identical to the light emitting effect of the first light emitting element 131, the difference in display effect between the transitional display area AA3 and the first display area AA1 is almost indistinguishable visually, and the uniformity of the display effect of the display panel 1 is improved.
In some embodiments, the first light emitting element 131, the second light emitting element 132, and the third light emitting element 133 respectively include multiple colors, and at this time, the area of the third pixel opening 143 is smaller than the area of the second pixel opening 142, where the area comparison is a comparison between the pixel openings corresponding to the light emitting elements of the same color, that is, the area of the third pixel opening 143 corresponding to the third light emitting element 133 is smaller than the area of the second pixel opening 142 corresponding to the second light emitting element 132 of the same color. Similarly, the area difference between the third pixel opening 143 and the first pixel opening 141 is smaller than the area difference between the third pixel opening 143 and the second pixel opening 142, that is, the area difference between the third pixel opening 143 and the first pixel opening 141 corresponding to the same color light emitting element is smaller than the area difference between the third pixel opening 143 and the second pixel opening 142 corresponding to the same color light emitting element. For example, an area difference between the third pixel opening 143 corresponding to the red light emitting element and the first pixel opening 141 is smaller than an area difference between the third pixel opening 143 corresponding to the red light emitting element and the second pixel opening 142.

The side of the first transition area a31 remote from the first display area AA1 is used to dispose the third light emitting element 133 and the corresponding third pixel circuit 123.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, the second light emitting elements 132 and the third light emitting elements 133 are arranged in the same manner as the first light emitting elements 131, and are aligned in a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to each other. The area of the third light emitting element 133 is equal to the area of the first light emitting element 131, and the shape of the third light emitting element 133 is the same as the shape of the first light emitting element 131. That is, the area of the third pixel opening 143 is equal to the area of the first pixel opening 141, and the shape of the third pixel opening 143 is the same as the shape of the first pixel opening 141, so that the light emitting effect of the third light emitting element 133 of the transitional display area AA3 is almost identical to the light emitting effect of the first light emitting element 131, the difference in display effect between the transitional display area AA3 and the first display area AA1 is almost indistinguishable visually, and the uniformity of the display effect of the display panel 1 is improved.
In some embodiments, the second transition area a32 is used to arrange all the first pixel circuits 121, the first transition area a31 is used to arrange the third light emitting elements 133 and the corresponding third pixel circuits 123, and the light transmittance of the first transition area a31 and the second transition area a32 is between the first display area AA1 and the second display area AA 2.

The area of the transitional display area AA3 remote from the first display area AA1 is used to dispose the third light emitting elements 133 and the corresponding third pixel circuits 123.
Alternatively, the plurality of second light emitting elements 132 and the plurality of third light emitting elements 133 are arranged in the same manner and aligned along a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to each other.
