[0053] In one embodiment, a first opening 101 is provided in the first polarizer 82, and the first opening 101 is arranged in alignment with the light sensing electrode 22 in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10, thereby effectively increasing the amount of light entering the light sensing electrode 22 and improving the sensitivity and accuracy of the light detector Tg.

[0054] In addition, the display panel may further include a second polarizer disposed on a side of the substrate 10 away from the color filter substrate, which is not shown in the figure.

[0055] Furthermore, the display panel includes a plurality of functional layers arranged between the first polarizer 82 and the first active layer 20, and a second opening 102 is opened in at least some of the plurality of functional layers. The second opening 102 and the light sensing electrode 22 are aligned with each other in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10, thereby further increasing the amount of light entering the light sensing electrode 22 and improving the sensitivity and accuracy of the light detector Tg.

[0056] In one embodiment, the multiple functional layers may include a color filter layer 83, an interlayer insulating layer 67, a planarizing layer 66, an interlayer dielectric layer 65 and a third gate insulating layer 64; and in this embodiment, the second opening 102 may pass through the color filter layer 83 and the planarizing layer 66; it can be understood that the second opening 102 may also pass through other film layers in the multiple functional layers, which can be selected according to actual needs and is not limited here.

[0058] It should be noted that, since the first opening 101 is opened in the first polarizer 82 of the display panel, the first polarizer 82 will lose its polarization effect at the position of the first opening 101, affecting the display effect of the display panel. Therefore, in the embodiment of the utility model, the light detector Tg is arranged in the non-display area BA, and the first opening 101 is also located in the non-display area BA, which will not affect the light output of the display panel, thereby ensuring the display effect of the display panel.

[0083] In summary, in the embodiment of the utility model, the photodetector Tg is integrated inside the display panel to realize the ultraviolet light detection function of the display panel, and the various devices of the photodetector Tg are prepared on the same layer as the various devices of the first transistor T1, so that the setting of the photodetector Tg can be realized without adding an additional mask, thereby saving the process cost of the display panel; further, since the first active portion 21 of the first transistor T1 in the display panel is prepared using indium gallium zinc oxide, and indium gallium zinc oxide itself has the property of absorbing ultraviolet light and does not absorb visible light, infrared light and other light, therefore, in the embodiment of the utility model, the photodetector Tg and the first transistor T1 are prepared by the same process, so that the function of ultraviolet light detection can be realized, and there is no need to add a filter structure in the display panel, which further reduces the process steps of the display panel and saves the process cost of the display panel; in addition, in the embodiment of the utility model, a first opening 101 and a second opening 102 are formed above the light sensing electrode 22 to increase the amount of light entering the light sensing electrode 22, thereby improving the sensitivity and accuracy of the photodetector Tg.
