Patent ID: 7791269

Claim:
A display apparatus comprising: a substrate; a plurality of luminescent elements formed on the substrate; and a light blocking layer provided in a region between the luminescent elements when viewed from overhead, wherein the light blocking layer comprises a first light blocking film located at a substrate side, and a second light blocking film located at a side away from the substrate, the first light blocking film is a metallic chromium film, and the second light blocking film is made of chromium oxide, one of the plurality of luminescent elements comprises a counter electrode, a pixel electrode that is closer to the substrate than the counter electrode, and a luminescent layer disposed between the counter electrode and the pixel electrode, at least a portion of the first light blocking film is disposed closer to the substrate than an entirety of the luminescent layer, and the light blocking layer is disposed between a plane including a surface of the pixel electrode facing the substrate and a plane including a surface of the counter electrode facing the substrate.
