Abstract
A display panel comprises a TFT substrate and a display medium layer. The display medium layer is disposed on the TFT substrate. The TFT substrate comprises a TFT and a substrate. The TFT is disposed on the substrate and comprises a gate, a metal oxide layer, a source, a drain and a protection layer. The gate is disposed corresponding to the metal oxide layer. The protection layer is disposed on the metal oxide layer. Each of the source and the drain contacts the metal oxide layer through an opening of the protection layer. One side of the gate or one side of the metal oxide layer partially overlaps at least one of the openings. In addition, a display device is also disclosed.
