  • Patent number: 8093612
    Abstract: An organic EL display device forms an organic EL layer on a pixel portion by a transfer method without using a sophisticated optical system. A patterned light reflection layer is formed on a donor substrate. A light absorption layer is formed on the light reflection layer. An organic EL material layer is formed on the light absorption layer. An element substrate on which banks, lower electrodes and the like are formed is arranged to face a donor substrate in an opposed manner. When light is radiated to the donor substrate from a flash lamp or the like, only portions of the optical absorption layer where the light reflection layers are not formed are heated, and such portions of the organic EL material layer are evaporated and applied to a lower electrode formed on the element substrate. Due to such steps, the organic EL layer can be formed by a transfer method without using a sophisticated optical system.
