Abstract

The present invention provides an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display panel including a substrate, a thin-film transistor, an insulating layer, an auxiliary electrode, an organic light-emitting layer, a shielding stage, and a common electrode. The common electrode is electrically connected to the auxiliary electrode. The shielding stage includes at least one organic material layer. An angle between the shielding stage and the substrate is a threshold value.
