Abstract

A display substrate includes: a base substrate including a photosensitive region, the photosensitive region including a plurality of display regions spaced apart and a gap region between the plurality of display regions; a first electrode layer on the base substrate; a light-emitting layer on a side of the first electrode layer away from the base substrate; and a second electrode layer on a side of the light-emitting layer away from the base substrate. Each display region corresponds to at least one first luminescent material region of the light-emitting layer; the gap region corresponds to the plurality of second luminescent material regions of the light-emitting layer; a part of the second electrode layer in the photosensitive region includes a plurality of second electrodes spaced apart, and an orthographic projection of each second electrode on the base substrate overlaps with each display region.
