Abstract

Disclosed is a flexible display substrate and a method for manufacturing the same which can avoid break and peeling of film layers disposed on a flexible base and further reduce degree of a warpage occurred in the flexible base when separating the support substrate from the flexible base located above the support substrate. The flexible display substrate comprises the flexible base, a first buffer layer and a second buffer layer disposed on an upper surface and a lower surface of the flexible base, respectively, and a plurality of display modules disposed on the first buffer layer, each display module includes at least one thin film transistor and at least one electrode corresponding to the thin film transistor.
