EL display device and a method of manufacturing the same
View Patent ↗To provide a high throughput film deposition means for film depositing an organic EL material made of polymer accurately and without any positional shift. A pixel portion is divided into a plurality of pixel rows by a bank, and a head portion of a thin film deposition apparatus is scanned along a pixel row to thereby simultaneously apply a red light emitting layer application liquid, a green light emitting layer application liquid, and a blue light emitting layer application liquid in stripe shapes. Heat treatment is then performed to thereby form light emitting layers luminescing each of the colors red, green, and blue.
1. An EL display device comprising:
a pixel portion having a plurality of gate wirings, a plurality of source wirings intersecting said plurality of gate wirings, a plurality of banks provided over said plurality of gate wirings, at least one thin film transistor surrounded by said plurality of gate wirings and said plurality of said source wirings, and an EL element electrically connected to said thin film transistor,
wherein said pixel portion comprises a plurality of pixel rows arranged along said plurality of banks, and
wherein said plurality of pixel rows comprise a first pixel row in which a red light emitting layer is formed, a second pixel row in which a green-light emitting layer is formed, and a third pixel row in which a blue light emitting layer is formed, and
wherein each of said plurality of pixel rows comprises at least two pixels and a light emitting layer covering the at least two pixels.
2. An EL display device according to claim 1 , wherein said red light emitting layer, said green light emitting layer and said blue light emitting layer comprise high molecular organic EL materials.
3. An EL display device according to claim 1 , wherein said EL display device is incorporated into an electronic device selected from the group consisting of a video camera, a digital camera, a goggle type display, a car navigation system, an audio reproducing device, a personal computer, a game equipment, and a portable information terminal.
4. An EL display device comprising:
a pixel portion having a plurality of gate wirings, a plurality of source wirings intersecting said plurality of gate wirings, a plurality of banks provided over said plurality of gate wirings or said plurality of source wirings, at least one thin film transistor surrounded by said plurality of gate wirings and said plurality of said source wirings, and an EL element electrically connected to said thin film transistor,
wherein said pixel portion comprises a plurality of pixel rows arranged along said plurality of banks, and
wherein said plurality of pixel rows comprise a first pixel row in which a red light emitting layer is formed, a second pixel row in which a green light emitting layer is formed, and a third pixel row in which a blue light emitting layer is formed, and
wherein each of said plurality of pixel rows comprises at least two pixels and a light emitting layer covering the at least two pixels.
5. An EL display device according to claim 4 , wherein said red light emitting layer, said green light emitting layer and said blue light emitting layer comprise high molecular organic EL materials.
6. An EL display device according to claim 4 , wherein said EL display device is incorporated into an electronic device selected from the group consisting of a video camera, a digital camera, a goggle type display, a car navigation system, an audio reproducing device, a personal computer, a game equipment, and a portable information terminal.
