Abstract
A display panel and a display device are disclosed. The display panel includes upper and lower substrates, a liquid crystal layer, a first electrode, and a second electrode. The second electrode includes at least a stem electrode and a plurality of branch electrodes. A plurality of subpixel areas are provided, and each of the subpixel areas is divided into at least four liquid crystal domains by the stem electrode. The subpixel area in corresponding one of the liquid crystal domains is further divided to form a partition-like structure to increase number of liquid crystal domains, so that light transmittance and display quality can be improved.
