Evaporation mask and manufacturing method of organic EL display
A method of manufacturing an evaporation mask, includes preparing a semi-finished body of an evaporation mask including a reinforcing bar and a film having an area larger than an area of the reinforcing bar, forming an opening pattern in a region, which is prevented from planarly overlapping with the reinforcing bar, of the film, and forming at least one projecting portion in a region, which is on a surface opposite to the reinforcing bar and which planarly overlaps with the reinforcing bar, of the film.
1. A method of manufacturing an evaporation mask, comprising:
preparing a semi-finished body of an evaporation mask comprising:
a reinforcing frame including a reinforcing bar; and
a film having an area larger than an area of the reinforcing bar;
forming an opening pattern in a region, which is prevented from planarly overlapping with the reinforcing bar, of the film; and
forming at least one projecting portion in a region, which is on a surface opposite to the reinforcing bar, which planarly overlaps with the reinforcing bar, which protrudes in a direction in which the film is located in regard to the reinforcing frame, and which has a disc shape with a diameter smaller than a width of the reinforcing bar, of the film;
wherein the forming an opening pattern and the forming at least one projecting portion are performed by irradiating a laser light, and
wherein an output power of the laser light during formation of the at least one projecting portion is lower than an output power of the laser light during formation of the opening pattern.
2. The method of manufacturing an evaporation mask according to claim 1 , further comprising forming at least one projecting portion also in a region, which is on a surface opposite to the reinforcing bar and which is prevented from planarly overlapping with the reinforcing bar, of the film, the region being between a pair of openings adjacent to each other without sandwiching the reinforcing bar in the opening pattern.
3. A method of manufacturing an organic EL display, comprising:
preparing a semi-finished body of an evaporation mask comprising:
a reinforcing frame including a reinforcing bar; and
a film having an area larger than an area of the reinforcing bar;
forming an opening pattern in a region, which is prevented from planarly overlapping with the reinforcing bar, of the film;
forming at least one projecting portion in a region, which is on a surface opposite to the reinforcing bar, which planarly overlaps with the reinforcing bar, which protrudes in a direction in which the film is located in regard to the reinforcing frame, and which has a disc shape with a diameter smaller than a width of the reinforcing bar, of the film; and
depositing an organic material through the opening pattern;
wherein the forming an opening pattern and the forming at least one projecting portion are performed by irradiating a laser light, and
wherein an output power of the laser light during formation of the at least one projecting portion is lower than an output power of the laser light during formation of the opening pattern.
