The present disclosure is related to an array substrate. The array substrate may include a base substrate and a pixel defining layer on the base substrate. The pixel defining layer may include a plurality of thickness thinning regions. The thickness thinning regions may have a smaller height than other areas of the pixel define layer on the base substrate. The plurality of the thickness thinning regions may be configured to guide flow of fillers to form an encapsulating layer on the pixel defining layer.

Provided are a display substrate, a preparation method thereof, and a display apparatus. A portion of a pixel definition layer that is in contact with a light-emitting functional layer is configured to have the performance of switching between hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity when an external condition changes. When film layers of the light-emitting functional layer are formed, due to the inconsistent hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity of the film layers of the light-emitting functional layer, when a hydrophilic light-emitting functional layer is formed, the pixel definition layer switches, under processing via the external condition, the portion of the pixel definition layer that is in contact with the light-emitting functional layer to be hydrophobic, and when a hydrophobic light-emitting functional layer is formed, the pixel definition layer switches, under processing via the external condition, the portion of the pixel definition layer that is in contact with the light-emitting functional layer to be hydrophilic.
