Abstract

A mask for forming a trench in a flexible bendable region of a flexible display panel is provided. The mask includes a first region, a second region, and a third region sandwiched between the first and second regions in a first direction, and the third region has the same pattern as a pattern of a trench to be formed. Light transmission properties of the first and second regions are the same as each other, but are opposite to a light transmission property of the third region. An edge of at least one of the first and second regions proximal to the third region has a plurality of protrusions, and each of the plurality of protrusions has a vertex angle that is at a side proximal to the third region and is not more than 90°. A flexible display panel and a manufacturing method thereof are further provided.
