- the plurality of second openings 174 may be provided in other parts (for example, between the first terminal 150 and the plurality of first openings 172). It can be said that the second opening 174 is adjacent to the first opening 172.
- the second openings 174 are arranged in a plurality of rows.
- the second openings 174 belonging to a certain row and the second openings 174 belonging to one outer row are alternately arranged. That is, the plurality of second openings 174 are staggered.
- the plurality of second openings 174 are arranged so that the corners of the second openings 174 belonging to a certain row overlap with the central portion of the second openings 174 belonging to one outer or inner row.

- the coating material for forming the organic layer 130 does not flow out of the outer peripheral part 171 easily by the pinning effect produced in the edge of the 2nd opening 174. That is, an annular inclined surface generated by forming the second opening 174 is formed. This inclined surface exhibits a pinning effect on the coating material.
- the angle of the inclined surface is an acute angle (forward tapered shape) with respect to the substrate 110. The greater the angle of the inclined surface with respect to the substrate 110 (also referred to as obtuse angle or inversely tapered), the greater the pinning effect, and the more difficult the coating material penetrates into the second opening 174.

- the angle of the inclined surface with respect to the substrate 110 at the corners of the first opening 172 and the second opening 174 may be smaller than the angle with respect to the substrate 110 of the inclined surface at a portion other than the corner. For this reason, the coating material spreads more easily in the corners of the first opening 172 and the second opening 174 than in the other parts.

- the coating material in which the protrusion of the first opening 172 from the portion other than the corner is suppressed gathers at the corner of the first opening 172, and as a result, the corner of the first opening 172. This is thought to be because the coating material oozes out from. Further, regarding the side surface of the insulating layer 170 in the first opening 172, when the angle of the side surface at the corner of the first opening 172 with respect to the substrate 110 is smaller than the angle of the side surface in the other part of the first opening 172, It is thought that it is easier to eat out.

- the protruding region 132 of the coating film extends to the sealing region 182 (the coating material reaches the sealing region 182). Can be deterred. As a result, it can be suppressed that the sealing region 182 is covered with the coating film.
- the thickness of the coating film may not be sufficiently uniform due to the coffee stain effect phenomenon. Therefore, in order to improve the uniformity of the thickness of the coating film in the first opening 172, a coating film is formed on the outer peripheral portion 171, the first opening 172, and the wall portion 173 of the insulating layer 170. In this case, a part of the coating film on the outer peripheral portion 171 of the insulating layer 170 is thicker or thinner than the coating film formed in the first opening 172, but the coating film in the first opening 172. Can be made uniform in thickness.

- the coating material applied to the first opening 172 scoops up the side surface of the wall portion 173 by capillarity and covers the upper surface of the wall portion 173.
- the second electrode 140 is formed on the organic layer 130 and the insulating layer 170 by using a vapor deposition method or a sputtering method. Thereafter, the sealing member 180 is attached to the substrate 110.
- the coating material forming the organic layer 130 is also located on the outer peripheral portion 171 and the wall portion 173 of the insulating layer 170.

- the second opening 174 is formed in the outer peripheral portion 171, it is possible to prevent the coating material from overflowing to the outside of the outer peripheral portion 171 due to the pinning effect generated by the second opening 174. Further, even if the coating material overflows outside the outer peripheral portion 171, the coating material spreads toward the corner portion 112 of the substrate 110 and forms a protruding region 132. For this reason, it can suppress that the protrusion area

Also in this modification, the insulating layer 170 surrounds the light emitting element 102. Specifically, the insulating layer 170 includes an outer peripheral portion 171 that hits the outer frame of the light emitting portion 104 and a wall portion 173 that partitions adjacent light emitting elements 102.
- the outer peripheral part 171 has a shape along a rectangular edge and is thicker than the wall part 173. In particular, a portion of the outer peripheral portion 171 facing the first terminal 150 is thicker than a portion of the outer peripheral portion 171 facing the second terminal 160.
- the wall portion 173 is provided with a plurality of second openings 174.
- the plurality of second openings 174 are arranged over the entire outer peripheral portion 171 in the circumferential direction so as to surround the plurality of first openings 172 (that is, the light emitting unit 104).
- the second opening 174 has the shape shown in FIG.
- the second opening 174 is not provided in the entire outer peripheral portion 171, and is in a region on the opposite side of the first opening 172 from the center of the second opening 174. Only formed. If it does in this way, the coating material for forming the organic layer 130 can be coated in the part located near the 1st opening 172 among the outer peripheral parts 171. FIG. Thereby, when the coating material is dried to form the organic layer 130, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of a portion where the organic layer 130 is not formed in the region inside the first opening 172 even if the coating material contracts.
- the second opening 174 may take such an arrangement.
- an annular inclined surface generated by forming the second opening 174 is formed.
- This inclined surface provides a pinning effect for the coating material.
- the angle of the inclined surface is an acute angle (forward tapered shape) with respect to the substrate 110. The greater the angle of the inclined surface with respect to the substrate 110 (also referred to as obtuse angle or inversely tapered), the greater the pinning effect, and the more difficult the coating material penetrates into the second opening 174.
- the second openings 174 are arranged in a staggered manner. For this reason, it can suppress that a coating material spreads in both the direction where the outer peripheral part 171 extends, and the width direction of the outer peripheral part 171 in the upper surface of the outer peripheral part 171. Then, the coating material that protrudes from the first opening 172 overflows from the corner of the insulating layer 170 toward the corner 112 of the substrate 110 to form a protruding region 132.
- FIG. 10 is a plan view showing the configuration of the light emitting device 100 according to the second modification.
- the light emitting device 100 according to this modification has the same configuration as that of the light emitting device 100 according to modification 1, except that the layout of the second openings 174 is the same as the example shown in FIG.
- FIG. 11 is a plan view showing the configuration of the light emitting device 100 according to Modification 3. As shown in FIG. The light emitting device 100 according to this modification has the same configuration as that of the light emitting device 100 according to modification 1, except that the layout of the second opening 174 is the same as the example shown in FIG.
