The substrate includes a plurality of data lines, scanning lines, and pixel cells arranged in a matrix. Each of the pixel cells includes a first sub-pixel and a second sub-pixel. For the pixel cells in each row, a first sub-pixel of a pixel cell connects with the two scanning lines. The second sub-pixel of the pixel cell connects with one of the scanning line. When the pixel cells are driven, durations of the turn-on signals outputted by the two scanning lines connected with the pixel cell are different or the turn-on signals are asynchronous. As such, a turn-on period of the second sub-pixel of the pixel cell connecting with the data line is longer than the turn-on period of the first sub-pixel connecting with the corresponding data line. In this way, the color shift may be reduced. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A substrate, comprising: a plurality of data lines, scanning lines, pixel cells arranged in a matrix, each of the pixel cells comprising a first sub pixel and a second sub pixel, wherein the pixel cells located in every two adjacent columns constituting a pixel cell set, each pixel cell set comprising a first pixel cell and a second pixel cell which are both located in a same row;
