Claim Text:
1. A vapor deposition method for forming a coating film having a predetermined pattern on a substrate, the method comprising: a vapor deposition step of forming the coating film by causing vapor deposition particles to adhere to the substrate, wherein the vapor deposition step uses a vapor deposition unit including: wherein each of the plurality of vapor deposition source openings is configured to discharge the vapor deposition particles, wherein the plurality of control plates are thin plates that have same dimensions and are disposed at a fixed pitch in the first direction while major surfaces are perpendicular to the first direction, the major surfaces being surfaces having the largest area of the plurality of control plates, wherein the plurality of vapor deposition source openings are arranged in the first direction and at the same pitch as a pitch of the plurality of control plates, and the plurality of vapor deposition source openings each have a nozzle shape, wherein in the first direction, each of the plurality of vapor deposition source openings is arranged at a center of neighboring control plates, and wherein when vapor deposition particle flows which are flows of the vapor deposition particles that are discharged from the plurality of vapor deposition source openings and pass through the inter-control plate spaces are viewed in the second direction, a deposition surface of the substrate is disposed at a position where a degree of overlap is 2 or more and is also constant in the first direction, the degree of overlap being a number of overlapping vapor deposition particle flows.
