Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an organic EL (Electroluminescent: electroluminescence) device and a manufacturing method thereof, and particularly relates to an organic EL display. Background technique [0002] An organic EL device, which is a constituent element of an organic EL display, generally includes an organic EL element and a thin film transistor (TFT: thin film transistor) for driving the element. A general organic EL device uses a driving transistor (driving TFT) and a switching transistor (switching TFT) that turns the driving transistor on or off in order to drive the organic EL element. [0003] As an example of a typical structure of an organic EL device, a top emission structure in which an organic EL element is stacked on a transistor is known (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). Such an organic EL device is called a top emission type organic EL device, and the light from the light emitting layer is released through the sealin...
