An array substrate and a display panel are disclosed. The array substrate includes at least one data line, at least one scanning line, and a pixel cell defined by the data line and the scanning line. The pixel cell includes an ITO thin film and at least one metallic layer below the ITO thin film. The ITO thin film electrically connects to the metallic layer via a through hole. The ITO thin film includes a slit arranged between the ITO thin film and the through hole, and the slit is arranged to avoid the disclination lines so as to improve the display performance.
