no. 2 Embodiment approach

[0334] The second embodiment of the manufacturing method of the EL element of the present invention is characterized in that it includes the step of forming a wettability variable layer on the substrate on which the first electrode layer is formed, forming a wettability factor accompanying energy irradiation. The wettability changing layer changed by the action of the photocatalyst; the wettability changing pattern forming process, relative to the above wettability changing layer, vacates the gap that can be affected by the action of the catalyst accompanying energy irradiation, and arranges it on the substrate. A photocatalyst treatment layer substrate having a photocatalyst treatment layer containing at least a photocatalyst is formed, and then, by irradiating energy in a pattern, a wettability region consisting of a lyophilic region and a liquid repellent region is formed on the surface of the wettability changing layer. Moisture change pattern; light emitting layer forming ...

Embodiment 1

[0482] (Formation of transparent electrodes)

[0483] On the cleaned glass substrate, use sputtering method to 1500 The film thickness forms an ITO film as a transparent electrode. Then, the ITO film was patterned with a line width of 300 μm and a space of 100 μm by photolithography.

[0484] (Formation of insulating layer)

[0485] A negative resist (manufactured by Nippon Steel Chemical Co., Ltd., V259PA) was applied by spin coating to a dry film thickness of 1 μm on the substrate on which the ITO film was patterned, and then baked at 120° C. for 1 hour. Then, a 365-nm UV light was exposed at an exposure amount of 500 mJ through a photomask with a width of 100 μm centering on the space portion without the ITO film. At this time, exposure was performed with a gap of 1 mm between the photomask and the substrate. This was developed for 40 seconds using an organic alkali developer (manufactured by Nippon Steel Chemical Co., Ltd., V259OD), and then baked at 160° C. for 1 hou...

Abstract

A primary object of this invention is to provide a manufacturing method for an EL element, which can facilitate patterning for a luminescent layer containing quantum dots. This method includes: a wettability-changing-layer-forming step for forming a wettability changing layer containing a photocatalyst, on a substrate having a first electrode layer formed thereon, wherein wettability of the wettability-changing layer is changed by an effect of the photocatalyst associated with irradiation with energy; and a wettability-changing-pattern forming step for forming a wettability changing pattern composed of lyophilic regions and liquid-repellent regions, on a surface of the wettability changing layer, by irradiating the wettability changing layer with energy in a patterning manner. Additionally, in this method, a luminescent layer is formed onto each lyophilic region, by coating a luminescent-layer-forming coating liquid containing the quantum dots, around each of which ligands are attached. In this way, the EL element can be obtained.
