Patent ID: 8119188

Claim:
A method for manufacturing an electroluminescent device comprising: setting a substrate in a chamber; forming an anode over the substrate; forming an electroluminescence layer over the anode by repeatedly spreading a plurality of droplets of a first composition which flows from a nozzle; and forming a cathode over the electroluminescence layer, wherein the plurality of droplets of the first composition are discharged so that the plurality of droplets of the first composition are spread from the nozzle in different directions at one time, wherein a fixed skirt is provided inside of and in contact with the chamber and the fixed skirt is provided around the nozzle, wherein a heated nitrogen gas is discharged into an inner side of the fixed skirt to hit the plurality of droplets of the first composition, wherein the plurality of droplets of the first composition comprises an organic compound, and wherein the substrate is heated by a heater provided on a substrate stage.
