    摘要: A display panel and a manufacturing method thereof that belong to the field of transflecting liquid crystal display technology are provided and can address the problems of dark state leakage and complex manufacturing process of current transflecting liquid crystal display devices. Each pixel of the display panel includes a transmission region (91) and a reflection region (92), and the display panel includes a first polarizer (11), a first base substrate (19), a first alignment layer (13), a liquid crystal layer (5), a second alignment layer (23), a second base substrate (29), and a second polarizer (21). A reflection layer (921) is provided between the second alignment layer (23) and the second polarizer (21) in the reflection region (92). The liquid crystal layer (5) in the reflection region (92) includes nematic liquid crystal (51) and a polymer network (52). The liquid crystal layer (5) in the transmission region (91) includes a liquid crystal mixture including the nematic liquid crystal (51) and polymerizable monomers (521). The polymer network (52) in reflection region (92) is formed by polymerizing the polymerizable monomers (521) in the liquid crystal mixture. When there is no electric field, the alignment direction of nematic liquid crystal (51) in the reflection region is different from the orientation of the first alignment layer (13), and the alignment direction of nematic liquid crystal (51) in the transmission region (91) is the same as that of the first alignment layer (13).
