Abstract

A display panel includes a display region, a substrate, and multiple sub-pixels. The multiple sub-pixels are located in the display region on one side of the substrate. The multiple sub-pixels are arranged in rows along a first direction. Two adjacent rows of sub-pixels are staggered. The multiple sub-pixels include first sub-pixels and second sub-pixels located in the two adjacent rows. The coordinates of the center of a first sub-pixel are denoted as (0, 0). The coordinates of the center of a second sub-pixel are denoted as (x 1 , y 1 ). A sub-pixel includes a first electrode. In the direction perpendicular to the substrate, the first electrode is polygonal and includes a first electrode side and a second electrode side connected in sequence. The included angle between the first electrode side and the first direction and the included angle between the second electrode side and the first direction are each θ.
