Abstract:
1. An electro-luminescence device, comprising: a transparent substrate; a plurality of pixel areas including a plurality of scanning lines and a plurality of data lines formed on the transparent substrate; a plurality of pixel electrodes formed on the plurality of pixel areas; an electro-luminescent layer over the plurality of pixel electrodes; a metal electrode formed on the electro-luminescent layer; a flat seal cover plate formed in a plane to seal the electro-luminescent layer; a heat-exhausting layer formed of a metal thin film, directly formed on the inner side of the seal cover plate and exposed to a space between the metal electrode and the seal cover plate; a moisture-absorbing agent provided at the inner side of a portion of the heat-exhausting layer opposed to the metal electrode to absorb moisture and oxygen from the electro-luminescent layer; and a sealant having a thickness larger than that of the electro-luminescent layer and the metal electrode for adhering an edge of the flat seal cover plate and the heat-exhausting layer to the transparent substrate, said sealant having space for injecting an inactive gas, wherein an entire surface of the heat-exhausting layer contacts the flat seal cover plate.
