Morphology
The meaning 'a panel that emits its own light' is directly and compositionally derived from combining 'self-luminous' (emitting light without external sources) with 'panel' (a flat piece or component). This is a literal adjective+noun technical compound following standard compositional patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents should be able to understand it.
Etymology
Self-luminous panel comes from the words self, luminous, and panel. Imagine a flat board that 'gives its own light' and so can shine without an outside lamp, which is why the name is used for signs and boards that light up by themselves.
