Disclosed are a fingerprint recognition sensor, a manufacturing method, and a display device. The fingerprint recognition sensor includes a base substrate, a thin film transistor, on a side of the base substrate; and a photosensitive element, on a side of the base substrate away from the thin film transistor, the thin film transistor, the base substrate, and the photosensitive element are sequentially stacked in a thickness direction perpendicular to the base substrate, the base substrate includes a conductive structure penetrating through the base substrate in the thickness direction perpendicular to the base substrate, and the photosensitive element is connected with the thin film transistor through the conductive structure.
