Therefore, the present disclosure should not be interpreted as being limited to the contents described in the following embodiments. The embodiments in the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be arbitrarily combined with each other on the premise of no conflict.

[0051] The scale of the drawings in the present disclosure can be used as a reference in an actual process, but is not limited thereto. For example, the width-length ratio of a channel, the thickness and pitch of each film layer, and the width and pitch of each signal line can be adjusted as needed. The number of pixels in a display substrate and the number of sub-pixels in each pixel are also not limited to the number shown in the drawings. The drawings described in the present disclosure are merely schematic diagrams, and one embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited to the shapes or values shown in the drawings.

[0058] In the present specification, "parallel" refers to a state in which two straight lines form an angle of -10° or more and 10° or less, and thus, a state in which the angle is -5° or more and 5° or less is also included. In addition, "perpendicular" refers to a state in which two straight lines form an angle of 80° or more and 100° or less, and thus, a state in which the angle is 85° or more and 95° or less is also included.
