Patent ID: 7656084

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a laminated type organic electroluminescent element that has a plurality of light-emitting units between a cathode and an anode, the light-emitting units being partitioned by at least one charge-generating layer, the method comprising steps of: providing one of the cathode and the anode; providing a first layer of a bank portion so as to have an aperture corresponding to the one of the cathode and the anode; providing a first layer of the light-emitting units in the aperture; depositing a liquid material for forming the charge-generating layer onto a predetermined position above the first layer of the light-emitting units and the first layer of the bank portion, the charge-generating layer being formed using a depositing device; providing a second layer of the bank portion onto a prescribed portion above the first layer of the bank portion and the charge-generating layer so that the charge-generating layer is at least partially interposed between the first and second layers of the bank portion; and providing the other of the anode and the cathode.
