Patent ID: 7462372

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a light emitting device, said method comprising the steps of: forming a thin film transistor over a substrate; forming a first conductive film over the thin film transistor by vacuum evaporation in a chamber selected from a first set of chambers connected to a first transferring chamber; forming a second conductive film over the first conductive film by vacuum evaporation in a chamber selected from the first set of chambers; transferring the substrate after forming the second conductive film to a second transferring chamber connected to a second set of chambers while maintaining the vacuum state, forming an organic film over the second conductive film by vacuum evaporation in at least one of the chambers selected from the second set of chambers; transferring the substrate after forming the organic film to the first transferring chamber while maintaining the vacuum state, forming a passivation film over the organic film by vacuum evaporation in a chamber selected from the first set of chambers; forming a light transmissive conductive film over the passivation film by sputtering in a chamber selected from the first set of chambers; and forming a diamond-like carbon film on the light transmissive conductive film in a chamber selected from the first set of chambers, wherein each of the first conductive film, the second conductive film, and the organic film is formed into a pattern using a mask, wherein the light transmissive conductive film comprises indium oxide and zinc oxide, wherein the step of forming the first conductive film through the step of forming the diamond-like carbon film are conducted continuously without exposing the substrate to an outside air, and wherein the first transferring chamber and the second transferring chamber are connected.
