Before explaining the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application, in order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the present application first specifically explains the problems existing in the related art:
since the display panel with a high screen ratio is popular with most consumers, the display panel is widely applied to electronic devices such as mobile phones, tablet computers and the like.
In the related art, the screen occupation ratio can be improved by disposing a photosensitive element such as a front camera, an infrared sensor element, or the like below the screen, and the photosensitive element can acquire image information through a corresponding screen area. In the screen area corresponding to the photosensitive element, the sub-pixel density or the sub-pixel area is usually smaller than those of other screen areas, or in the screen area corresponding to the photosensitive element, the light transmittance thereof needs to be larger than those of other screen areas. However, this may cause a difference in display between the screen area corresponding to the photosensitive element and the other screen area, i.e., display unevenness, and may even affect the photosensitive element to acquire image information.
In view of this, the present application provides a display panel and a display device, which can improve the display uniformity of the display panel and facilitate the photosensitive element to acquire image information. Embodiments of a display panel and a display device will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
