Manufacturing method for organic electroluminescent display device including etching partition wall after imparting lyophilicity to partion wall and pixel electrode

1. A method of manufacturing a display device, the method comprising:

forming a partitioning wall which is arranged along a pixel forming region where a display pixel provided with a pixel electrode is formed;

imparting lyophilicity to a surface of the pixel electrode and a surface of a side of the partitioning wall;

etching the surface of the side of the partitioning wall after the imparting lyophilicity; and

imparting liquid repellency to the surface of the side of the partitioning wall after the etching.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein when imparting lyophilicity to the surface of the pixel electrode, lyophilicity with respect to a solution containing a carrier transporting material for forming a carrier transporting layer is imparted to at least the surface of the pixel electrode by UV ozone treatment or oxygen plasma treatment.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein when etching the surface of the side of the partitioning wall, an oxide, which is formed on at least the surface of the side of the partitioning wall when imparting lyophilicity to the surface of the pixel electrode, is removed.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein when imparting liquid repellency to the surface of the side of the partitioning wall, a substrate on which the partitioning wall is formed is dipped in a solution of a triazine-thiol compound, and by the triazine-thiol compound bonding with at least the surface of the side of the partitioning wall, a coating film having liquid repellency with respect to a solution containing a carrier transporting material is formed on at least the surface of the side of the partitioning wall.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the surface of the pixel electrode is formed of a conductive metal oxide layer.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein at least the surface of the side of the partitioning wall is made of a metal material having low resistance.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the region where the display pixel is formed is defined by the partitioning wall.

8. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

forming a carrier transporting layer on the pixel electrode exposed in the pixel forming region.

9. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

coating a solution containing a carrier transporting material on the pixel electrode to which lyophilicity has been imparted, drying the solution, and forming a carrier transporting layer; and

forming an opposing electrode which faces the pixel electrode through the carrier transporting layer, and which is connected to the partitioning wall.

10. A method of manufacturing a display device, the method comprising:

imparting lyophilicity to a surface of a pixel electrode and a surface of a side of a partitioning wall which are formed in a region which surrounds the pixel electrode;

etching the surface of the side of the partitioning wall after the imparting lyophilicity; and

imparting liquid repellency to the surface of the side of the partitioning wall after the etching.
