1. A display panel, comprising: a first substrate and a second substrate disposed oppositely and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate; a material of the liquid crystal layer comprises cholesteric liquid crystal; the display panel further comprises a microstructure optical film layer located on a side of the second substrate facing away from the first substrate; incident light is incident from a side of the microstructure optical film layer, reflected by the cholesteric liquid crystal, and then emerged from the microstructure optical film layer; and
the microstructure optical film layer comprises a plurality of wedge structures; at least part of the wedge structures have different angles and sizes, so that light emerged from side view angles and with different emergent angles are adjusted to be emerged from a center view angle;
wherein each wedge structure comprises: an inclined substructure and a horizontal substructure; an included angle between an inclined surface of the inclined substructure and a horizontal plane of the horizontal substructure is greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees;
wherein
