Patent ID: 7559820

Claim:
A method for fabricating an organic EL device comprising the steps of: forming a TFT on a substrate; forming a planarization film on the entire surface of the substrate including the TFT; forming a first electrode having a concave shaped surface by forming a metal material having tensile stress on the planarization film and patterning the metal material, forming at least a second layer including one of a resistance reducing film and a reflecting film, and floating a corner portion of the first electrode from the surface of the planarization film by tensile stress of the first electrode; forming an organic EL layer on the first electrode; and forming a second electrode on the organic EL layer, wherein the forming of the first electrode includes: forming a metal material having tensile stress on the planarization film at a temperature of 200° C., forming a mask film on the metal material and patterning the mask film, removing the metal material using the patterned mask film as a mask, and forming the first electrode having a concave shaped surface by removing the mask film remaining on the metal material, wherein the metal material includes at least one of Al, Au, Mo, Ti, and Ag, and an alloy thereof.
