Patent ID: 6890782

Claim:
A method for manufacturing an electroluminescence display apparatus comprising stops of: affixing an element substrate on which an electroluminescence element is formed and a sealing substrate fixedly placed so as to oppose an element-forming surface of said element substrate via a sealing resin between the two substrates; pressing said element substrate toward fixedly placed said sealing substrate; and curing said sealing resin so as to bond said element substrate and said sealing substrate, wherein: said element substrate is affixed with said sealing substrate after said sealing resin is applied on bonding surface of said sealing substrate at a location corresponding a location surrounding an element-forming region of said element substrate; said sealing substrate, placed with the bonding surface thereof facing upwards when said sealing resin is applied, is installed on said support for the sealing substrate in such a manner that the bonding surface continues to face upwards after the completion of applying of said sealing resin; a depression is preformed on said bonding surface side of said sealing substrate; and a desiccant is applied in said depression of the sealing substrate.
