Problems solved by technology

In particular, when the heating temperature of the material containing portion is high, the evaporation rate of the vapor deposition material increases exponentially, making it more difficult to achieve stable control for either method.

example 1

[0038] use figure 1 The vapor deposition system shown in produces an organic EL device on a substrate by the following vapor deposition method. The material containing part 7 of the vapor deposition source 5 has a pipe 8 with a relatively large conductance and two pipes 9 with a relatively small conductance.

[0039] The target film formation speed was set at 2.0 nm / s. The film formation speed immediately above the pipe 8 with a larger conductivity is maintained at about 1.9 nm / s. The flow rate of the vapor deposition material in the pipe 8 is completely controlled by the heating temperature of the material containing portion 7, but the heating temperature is kept substantially constant. The target film formation speed of the pipe 9 of small conductance was set so that the film formation speed immediately above the pipe 8 of larger conductance was 0.1 nm / s. The pipe 9 is provided with a needle valve as a flow rate adjustment mechanism 10 for controlling the flow rate of the...

[0043] use on the substrate Figure 3A Organic EL devices were fabricated using the vapor deposition sources shown in . The material containing portion 27 of the vapor deposition source is provided with six pipes 28 having the same electric conductivity. These pipes 28 are arranged at regular intervals on the top surface of the material containing portion 27 and at equal distances from the center of the top surface of the material containing portion 27 . Two of the six pipes 28 are provided with needle valves as a flow rate adjustment mechanism 30 for controlling the flow rate of the vapor deposition material.

[0044] The target film formation speed was set at 2.0 nm / s. The target film formation speed of the pipe without the needle valve was set so that the film formation speed immediately above the center of the top surface of the material containing portion 27 was 0.45 nm / s for each pipe. The flow rate of the vapor deposition material in these pipes is completely control...

[0049] use on the substrate Figure 3B Organic EL devices were fabricated using the vapor deposition sources shown in . The material containing portion 37 of the vapor deposition source is provided with a pipe 38 having a large conductance, a pipe 39a whose conductance is set to an intermediate level, and a pipe 39b having a small conductance.

[0050] The target film formation speed was set at 2.0 nm / s. The film formation speed immediately above the pipe 38 with larger conductivity is maintained at about 1.5 nm / s. The flow rate of the vapor deposition material of the pipe 38 is entirely controlled by the heating temperature of the material containing portion 37, but the heating temperature is kept substantially constant.

[0051] The target film formation speed of the pipe 39a of the intermediate conductance is set so that the film formation speed immediately above the pipe 38 of the larger conductance is 0.45 nm / s. The pipe 39a is provided with a needle valve as a flow ra...

Abstract

In a vapor deposition method of forming a film of an organic compound on a substrate, a material containing portion filled with a vapor deposition material is heated, to thereby evaporate or sublimate the vapor deposition material and discharge the vapor deposition material to a film formation space of a vacuum chamber through a plurality of pipings connected to the material containing portion, and a piping having a smaller conductance among the pipings having different conductances is provided with a flow rate adjusting mechanism for controlling an amount of the vapor deposition material released into the vacuum chamber, whereby a film formation speed can be adjusted finely; and a corresponding vapor deposition system.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vapor deposition system and a vapor deposition method for manufacturing an organic electroluminescence (EL) device by attaching evaporated or sublimated vapor deposition material to a film forming substrate. Background technique [0002] A vapor deposition system used for manufacturing an organic EL device generally has a vapor deposition source in which a vapor deposition material is heated and evaporated, and a vacuum chamber in which a film-forming substrate (substrate) is set. A vapor deposition system using a vapor deposition source commonly referred to as a point source or a line source can be given as an example of such a system. Many vapor deposition sources, referred to as point sources or line sources, are configured with an opening in a material containing portion filled with vapor deposition material through which the vapor deposition material is released. An inherent problem in the production of organic ...
