Abstract:
A method of manufacturing an optical element comprising at least a plurality of pixels formed on a substrate and partition walls arranged respectively between adjacent pixels, said method comprising the steps of:forming partition walls of a resin composition on a substrate; performing a dry etching process by irradiating the substrate carrying said partition walls formed thereon with plasma in an atmosphere containing a gas selected from the group consisting of oxygen, argon and helium; performing a plasma treatment process by irradiating the substrate subjected to said dry etching process with plasma in an atmosphere containing at least fluorine atoms; and forming pixels by applying ink to the areas surrounded by the partition walls by means of an ink-jet system, wherein said method is adapted to manufacture an electroluminescence element where said pixels are formed by a light emitting layer and said electroluminescence element comprises a pair of electrodes sandwiching said light emitting layer.
