Patent ID: 7414363

Claim:
An organic EL display device comprising: a substrate; a color organic material layer disposed on the substrate; an overcoat layer covering the color organic material layer; an inorganic solid layer disposed on the overcoat layer; a plurality of first electrodes, an organic light-emitting layer and a plurality of second electrodes disposed on the inorganic solid layer; a light-emitting portion, the light-emitting portion comprising a region of the organic light-emitting layer, where a first electrode and a second electrode overlap each other, and which is brought into contact with the first electrode and the second electrode; an insulting film disposed so as to cover both of edges of the first electrodes and all gaps between the first electrodes and adjacent ones thereof; and a protection layer disposed so as to cover an inorganic solid layer on the substrate as much as possible except areas of the first electrodes, the protection layer being patterned so as not to be short-circuited with the first electrodes when the protection layer comprises a conductive material.
