Specifically, fig. 4 shows that the first power line PVDD, the second power line PVEE, the driving transistor M0, and the light emitting element D0 are located on the same side of the substrate 10, wherein the driving transistor M0 and the light emitting element D0 are both located on a side of the second power line PVEE away from the substrate 10, in an actual production process, the driving transistor M0 and the light emitting element D0 may be electrically connected to a circuit in the display panel 100 through a bonding or binding process, and the bonding or binding of the driving transistor M0 and the light emitting element D0 is completed on the same side of the substrate 10.

It should be noted that, considering that the touch lead T is located on the first electrode layer 21, the touch lead shown in fig. 7 is shown in a dotted line form.
Specifically, referring to fig. 4, 7 and 8, when the touch electrode 30 is introduced into the display panel 100 and the touch electrode 30 is reused with the second power line PVEE, a plurality of touch electrode blocks 31 are formed on the second power line PVEE, and a plurality of touch leads T are formed on the first power line PVDD. The touch electrodes 30 are embodied as self-capacitance touch electrodes, each touch electrode block 31 in the touch electrodes 30 is electrically connected to a touch lead T on the first power line PVDD in a one-to-one correspondence manner, and since the touch electrode block 31 and the touch lead T electrically connected thereto are respectively located on the second electrode layer 22 and the first electrode layer 21, the touch electrode and the touch lead T are electrically connected through the first via hole K1 penetrating through the first insulating layer 91. In the display panel 100, during the display period, the first power line PVDD and the second power line PVEE are used to provide power signals to the driving transistor M0 and the light emitting element D0, and optionally, the driving transistor M0 is turned on, and the control signal line PWM transmits a pulse signal to the driving transistor; in the touch phase, the second power line PVEE is reused as a self-capacitance touch electrode, and the driving transistor M0 is optionally turned off in the touch phase by transmitting and receiving a touch signal through the touch lead T on the first power line PVDD.
