Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing an organic EL display device, the organic EL display device including an array substrate having a substrate and a plurality of elements arranged on the substrate and having a cathode, an anode opposed to the cathode and an organic active layer interposed between the cathode and the anode, and a sealed substrate which is opposed to one side of the array substrate on which the elements are formed and which makes atmosphere between the sealed substrate and the array substrate airtight, the method comprising: measuring a size of a foreign substance which is present between the cathode and the anode and which contributes to a short circuit between the cathode and the anode; setting a wavelength of a laser beam with which the foreign substance is irradiated and the number of times of irradiation, based on the size of the foreign substance; and irradiating the foreign substance with the laser beam to eliminate at least part of the foreign substance, wherein the measuring is performed to determine whether the size of the foreign substance is 9 μm
