Abstract

There are disclosed an organic light-emitting diode display panel, a method for fabricating the same, and a display device above, and the organic light-emitting diode display panel includes: an underlying substrate, a plurality of pixel elements arranged on the underlying substrate, pixel driving circuits electrically coupled to respective pixel elements, and a plurality of signal lines electrically coupled to the pixel driving circuits; and the organic light-emitting diode display panel further includes a resistance reducing electrode arranged at a different layer from, and connected in parallel with at least one signal line. Since the resistance reducing electrode is connected in parallel with the signal lines, resistances of the respective signal lines can be reduced to thereby lower a signal load on the respective signal lines so as to improve the display quality of the organic light-emitting diode display panel.
