Patent ID: 8658545

Claim:
A vapor deposition device for forming a coating film having a predetermined pattern on a substrate, the vapor deposition device comprising: a vapor deposition unit including a vapor deposition source having at least one vapor deposition source opening, a vapor deposition mask disposed between the at least one vapor deposition source opening and the substrate, and a limiting plate unit that is disposed between the vapor deposition source and the vapor deposition mask and that includes a plurality of limiting plates disposed along a first direction; and a moving mechanism for moving one of the substrate and the vapor deposition unit relative to the other along a second direction orthogonal to the normal line direction of the substrate and the first direction in a state in which the substrate and the vapor deposition mask are spaced apart at a fixed interval, wherein the coating film is formed by causing vapor deposition particles that have been discharged from the at least one vapor deposition source opening and that have passed through a limiting space between the limiting plates neighboring in the first direction and a plurality of mask openings formed in the vapor deposition mask to adhere onto the substrate, the limiting plate unit has a base portion and at least one outer surface member capable of attaching to and detaching from the base portion, and the at least one outer surface member constitutes at least a portion of surfaces defining the limiting space of the limiting plate unit and a surface of the limiting plate unit opposing the vapor deposition source.
