Abstract

According to one embodiment, a manufacturing method of a display device includes forming processing substrate, forming an organic layer, forming an upper electrode, forming a transparent layer, and forming an inorganic layer. The forming the upper electrode includes inclining a first evaporation source with respect to a normal of the processing substrate and depositing a material emitted from the first evaporation source while conveying the processing substrate. The forming the inorganic layer includes inclining a second evaporation source to a side opposite to a side to which the first evaporation source is inclined and depositing a material emitted from the second evaporation source while conveying the processing substrate.

Claims (26)

1 . A display device comprising:

a substrate;

a lower electrode disposed above the substrate;

a rib comprising an aperture overlapping the lower electrode;

a partition comprising a lower part disposed on the rib and an upper part disposed on the lower part and projecting from a side surface of the lower part;

an organic layer disposed on the lower electrode in the aperture;

an upper electrode disposed on the organic layer;

a transparent layer disposed on the upper electrode;

an inorganic layer disposed on the transparent layer; and

a sealing layer covering the inorganic layer and in contact with the lower part of the partition,

the upper electrode comprising a first end portion and a second end portion opposite to the first end portion,

the first end portion being covered by the inorganic layer,

the second end portion being exposed through the inorganic layer and being covered by the sealing layer.

2 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein

the lower part of the partition comprises a first side surface facing the first end portion and a second side surface facing the second end portion,

the inorganic layer is in contact with the first side surface, and

the upper electrode is in contact with the second side surface.

3 . The display device of claim 2 , wherein

a contact area between the first side surface and the inorganic layer is larger than a contact area between the first side surface and the upper electrode, and

a contact area between the second side surface and the upper electrode is larger than a contact area between the second side surface and the inorganic layer.

4 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein

the organic layer is separated from the partition, and

in a space between the organic layer and the partition, at least one of the upper electrode and the inorganic layer is interposed between the rib and the sealing layer.

5 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the rib and the sealing layer are formed of silicon nitride.

6 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the upper electrode is formed of an alloy of magnesium (Mg) and silver (Ag).

7 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic layer is formed of lithium fluoride (LiF).
