Abstract

The present invention provides an organic electronic element manufacturing method which provides a low manufacturing cost and excellent performance stability, and specifically an organic electronic element manufacturing method which provides a low manufacturing cost, and minimizes emission unevenness, lowering of emission efficiency and shortening of lifetime due to deterioration of gas barrier property of sealing. The organic electronic element manufacturing method is featured in that it comprises the steps of forming an organic electronic structure composed of a first electrode, at least one organic layer and a second electrode on a flexible substrate, and applying a flexible sealing substrate to the organic electronic structure, followed by heating treatment, wherein a heating temperature, at which the heating treatment is carried out, is less than Tg (glass transition temperature) of the substrate and not less than Tg of the sealing substrate.

Claims (7)

1. An organic electronic element manufacturing method comprising the steps of:

forming an organic electronic structure composed of a first electrode, at least one organic layer and a second electrode on a first flexible substrate, and

applying a second flexible substrate for sealing to the resulting organic electronic structure, followed by heating treatment, wherein a heating temperature, at which the heating treatment is carried out, is less than a glass transition temperature Tg of the first flexible substrate and not less than a glass transition temperature Tg of the second flexible substrate for sealing.

2. The organic electronic element manufacturing method of claim 1 , wherein a barrier film is formed on the second flexible substrate for sealing.

3. The organic electronic element manufacturing method of claim 1 , wherein the first and second flexible substrate are long length substrates.

4. The organic electronic element manufacturing method of claim 1 , wherein the organic electronic element is an organic electroluminescent element.

5. An organic electronic element wherein it is manufactured according to the organic electronic element manufacturing method of claim 1 .
