Abstract
A display substrate includes a base substrate, a reflection controlling layer disposed on the base substrate, and a metal wiring layer disposed on the reflection controlling layer. The metal wiring layer comprises an opaque metal. The reflection controlling layer changes wavelength-specific reflectance of reflected light using destructive interference. The reflected light is reflected from the metal wiring layer through the base substrate and the reflection controlling layer.
