Patent ID: 8093076

Claim:
A method of producing an organic light emitting apparatus, the organic light emitting apparatus having a substrate, an organic light emitting device having a first electrode, an organic light emitting layer, and a second electrode formed in the stated order on the substrate, and an inorganic sealing layer formed to cover an upper portion of the organic light emitting device and a surface of the substrate and to extend toward an end of the substrate, the method comprising the steps of: forming the organic light emitting device having the first electrode, the organic light emitting layer, and the second electrode in the stated order on the substrate; forming a three-dimensional portion along a division line set in advance on the surface of the substrate; forming the inorganic sealing layer by plasma CVD in the division line from above the second electrode so that the inorganic sealing layer straddles the three-dimensional portion; and dividing the substrate and inorganic sealing layer along the division line at a three-dimensional portion or outside the three-dimensional portion.
