example 1

[0086] Example 1 will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 , 2 and 5 . A plate (84 mm wide, 105 mm long, and 25 μm thick) formed of a nickel alloy was prepared as the mask plate 22 for forming the emission layer. In addition, 272 rectangular slits (100 μm wide and 64 mm long) were arranged as deposition slits 32 with a pitch of 300 μm. The rectangular slit is arranged such that its longitudinal direction (in this direction dimension is 64 mm) is along the width direction of the plate (in this direction dimension is 84 mm). In order to prevent the deformation of the slits, in parallel to the width direction of the slits with a pitch of 300 μm, reinforcing lines with a width of 20 μm were formed. Two cross-shaped alignment marks 26 were formed on the board at 5 mm away from the left end line of the board at symmetrical positions with a distance between 30 mm in the width direction of the board. A total of 16 plates were similarly fabricated as masks.

example 2

[0091] The combined mask obtained in Example 1 was attached to a mask holder in a deposition apparatus for forming a green emitting layer as a combined mask for forming a green emitting layer. Then, another combined mask was fabricated similarly to Example 1, except that the positions of the slits (100 μm wide and 64 mm long) formed in the mask plate were shifted by 100 μm (corresponding to the length of one pitch of ITO electrodes), and used as to form a composite mask for the red emitting layer. In addition, another composite mask was fabricated similarly to Example 1, except that the positions of the slits (100 μm wide and 64 mm long) formed in the mask plate were shifted by 200 μm (corresponding to the length of two pitches of the ITO electrodes), and were used The combined mask used to form the blue emitting layer.

[0092] Next, a 130 nm-thick ITO transparent electrode layer was formed by sputtering on the surface of an alkali-free glass substrate (1.1 mm thick, 436 mm ...

example 3

[0102] As shown in FIG. 3 , a plate (82 mm wide, 103 mm long, and 30 μm thick) formed of a nickel alloy was prepared as a mask plate 122 for forming the emission layer. In addition, 256 rectangular slits (100 μm wide and 62 mm long) were arranged as deposition slits 132 with a pitch of 300 μm. The rectangular slit is arranged such that its longitudinal direction (in this direction dimension is 62 mm) is along the width direction of the plate (in this direction dimension is 82 mm). In order to prevent the deformation of the slits, in parallel to the width direction of the slits with a pitch of 300 μm, reinforcing lines with a width of 20 μm were formed. Two cross-shaped alignment marks 126 were formed on the center line in the longitudinal direction of the board at symmetrical positions with a distance between 68 mm in the width direction of the board. Similarly, a total of 16 reticles were fabricated.

[0103] Each of the mask plates described above was fixed to a frame 124 ...

Abstract

An integrated mask including a plurality of deposition masks, each deposition mask having an array of deposition apertures formed in accordance with a deposition pattern; and a base plate having a plurality of openings on which the deposition masks are arranged is provided. The deposition masks are retained to the base plate by engaging units in a disengageable manner, and alignment marks used for positioning the deposition masks on the base plate are formed on the base plate. In addition, a method and apparatus for fabricating the integrated mask, a method and apparatus for manufacturing an organic EL device using the integrated mask, and an organic EL device are provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an organic EL (Electroluminescence) device capable of converting electrical energy into light, and it has various applications in devices such as display devices, flat panel displays, backlights, interior decorations, notice boards, electronic cameras, watches etc. More specifically, the present invention relates to a combined mask in which a plurality of deposition masks for manufacturing an organic EL device is arranged, and to a method and apparatus for producing such a combined mask. Furthermore, the present invention also relates to a method and apparatus for manufacturing an organic EL device using such a combined mask. Background technique [0002] In the organic EL device, when electrons supplied from the cathode and holes supplied from the anode are recombined within an organic layer disposed between the cathode and the anode, light is emitted. Because of the simple structure of the organic EL device and the ...
