 近年、液晶表示装置に代わる表示装置として、有機エレクトロルミネッセンスを用いた表示装置が注目されている。以下、有機エレクトロルミネッセンスを用いた表示装置を「有機EL表示装置」あるいは単に「表示装置」と略称する場合がある。有機EL表示装置は、自発光型であり、更には、高精細度の高速ビデオ信号に対しても十分な応答性を有し、商品化が鋭意進められている。 In recent years, a display device using organic electroluminescence has been attracting attention as a display device that replaces a liquid crystal display device. Hereinafter, a display device using organic electroluminescence may be abbreviated as "organic EL display device" or simply "display device". The organic EL display device is a self-luminous type, and further has sufficient responsiveness to a high-definition high-speed video signal, and is being enthusiastically commercialized.
 眼鏡やゴーグルなどといったアイウェアに装着するための表示装置にあっては、例えば、画素サイズを数マイクロメートルないし10マイクロメートル程度とするといったことに加えて、高輝度化を図ることが求められている。発光部と発光部とを区画する隔壁部によって光を反射させ、光取出し効率を向上させて高輝度化を図るといったことが、例えば、特開2007-165214号公報(特許文献1)に開示されている。 In display devices for wearing on eyewear such as eyeglasses and goggles, for example, in addition to setting the pixel size to about several micrometers to 10 micrometers, it is required to increase the brightness. There is.

It is conceivable that there is a leak between adjacent pixels. These are factors such as a decrease in brightness and a decrease in reliability.
 従って、本開示の目的は、光取出し効率を向上させることができ、隣接する画素間におけるリークなどを低減することができる表示装置および係る表示装置の製造方法、並びに、係る表示装置を備えた電子機器を提供することにある。 Therefore, an object of the present disclosure is a display device capable of improving the light extraction efficiency and reducing leakage between adjacent pixels, a method for manufacturing the display device, and an electronic device including the display device.

The light emitting portion is formed by sandwiching an organic layer including a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer, an electron transport layer, and the like between a first electrode and a second electrode. When the cathode is shared, the second electrode is the cathode electrode and the first electrode is the anode electrode.

[第1の実施形態]
 第1の実施形態は、本開示に係る、表示装置および表示装置の製造方法、並びに、電子機器に関する。
[First Embodiment]
The first embodiment relates to a display device, a method for manufacturing the display device, and an electronic device according to the present disclosure.
 図1は、本開示の第1の実施形態に係る表示装置の模式的な平面図である。表示装置1は、アクティブマトリックス型のカラー表示の表示装置であり、基板上に2次元マトリクス状に配列して形成されている発光部の各々の発光を制御することによって、画像等を表示する表示装置である。平面上に複数配列された発光部は、例えば、赤色表示、緑色表示、および青色表示のいずれかの副画素PXを構成しており、これら3つの副画素PXによって、1つの画素が構成される。画素と画素の間には、後述する隔壁部30が設けられている。 FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view of the display device according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. The display device 1 is an active matrix type color display display device, and displays an image or the like by controlling the light emission of each of the light emitting units formed by arranging them in a two-dimensional matrix on a substrate. It is a device. A plurality of light emitting units arranged on a plane constitute, for example, a sub-pixel PX of any one of red display, green display, and blue display, and one pixel is composed of these three sub-pixel PXs. .. A partition wall portion 30, which will be described later, is provided between the pixels.
 図に示すように、副画素PXは、デルタ配列されている。破線で囲んだ1画素の大きさは、例えば、5マイクロメートル×5マイクロメートルといった大きさである。尚、図1において、赤色表示副画素を符号「R」で示し、緑色表示副画素を符号「G」で示し、青色表示副画素を符号「B」で示した。 As shown in the figure, the sub-pixels PX are delta-arranged.

In FIG. 1, the red display sub-pixel is indicated by the reference numeral “R”, the green display sub-pixel is indicated by the reference numeral “G”, and the blue display sub-pixel is indicated by the reference numeral “B”.
 副画素PX、あるいは又、後述する図2で示す発光部ELPの平面形状は、円形である。尚、副画素PXの配列はデルタ配列に限るものではない。例えば、所謂ストライプ配列であってもよい。 The planar shape of the sub-pixel PX or the light emitting portion ELP shown in FIG. 2 to be described later is circular. The arrangement of the sub-pixel PX is not limited to the delta arrangement. For example, it may be a so-called stripe arrangement.
 本実施形態に係る表示装置において、副画素PXの発光を制御する駆動回路や、副画素PXに電力を供給する電源回路などの構成は、特に限定するものではない。従って、これらに関する図示や具体的な説明は省略する。 In the display device according to the present embodiment, the configuration of the drive circuit that controls the light emission of the sub-pixel PX and the power supply circuit that supplies power to the sub-pixel PX is not particularly limited. Therefore, illustrations and specific explanations relating to these will be omitted.
 図2は、第1の実施形態に係る表示装置の模式的な一部断面図である。 FIG. 2 is a schematic partial cross-sectional view of the display device according to the first embodiment.
 表示装置1にあっては、第1電極20と有機層50と第2電極60とが積層されて成る発光部ELPが、基板10上に、2次元マトリクス状に配列して形成されている。第1電極20は発光部ELPごとに設けられている。隣接する第1電極20の間には隔壁部30が形成されており、第1電極20上と隔壁部30上を含む全面に、有機層50と第2電極60とが積層されている。第2電極60上を含む全面には、保護層70と充填層80とが順次成膜されており、その上に、表示すべき色に応じたカラーフィルタ90が形成されている。隔壁部30は金属層32から成る光反射面RSを有している。隔壁部30における第1電極20側の側面の部分には、隔壁部30の内部に向かう凹部GPが設けられている。後述する他の実施形態においても同様である。 In the display device 1, the light emitting portion ELP formed by laminating the first electrode 20, the organic layer 50, and the second electrode 60 is formed on the substrate 10 by arranging them in a two-dimensional matrix. The first electrode 20 is provided for each light emitting unit ELP. A partition wall 30 is formed between the adjacent first electrodes 20, and the organic layer 50 and the second electrode 60 are laminated on the entire surface including the first electrode 20 and the partition wall 30. A protective layer 70 and a filling layer 80 are sequentially formed on the entire surface including the second electrode 60, and a color filter 90 corresponding to the color to be displayed is formed on the protective layer 70. The partition wall portion 30 has a light reflecting surface RS made of a metal layer 32. A recess GP toward the inside of the partition wall 30 is provided on the side surface portion of the partition wall 30 on the side of the first electrode 20. The same applies to other embodiments described later.
 第1の実施形態において、隔壁部30は、絶縁材料から成り凹部GPが設けられている基材31と、凹部GPを除く基材31の表面に形成された金属層32とから成る。 In the first embodiment, the partition wall portion 30 is composed of a base material 31 made of an insulating material and provided with a recess GP, and a metal layer 32 formed on the surface of the base material 31 excluding the recess GP.
 基板10は、一方の面上に配置された複数の発光部ELPを支持する支持体である。図示されていないが、基板10には、発光部ELPの発光を制御するための駆動回路、電力を供給する電源回路、走査線やデータ線などが設けられている。基板10は、例えば、トランジスタ等の形成が容易な半導体材料で形成されている。 The substrate 10 is a support that supports a plurality of light emitting units ELP arranged on one surface. Although not shown, the substrate 10 is provided with a drive circuit for controlling light emission of the light emitting unit ELP, a power supply circuit for supplying electric power, scanning lines, data lines, and the like. The substrate 10 is made of, for example, a semiconductor material such as a transistor that can be easily formed.
 第1電極20は、例えば、アルミニウム銅合金(AlCu)から成り、発光部ELPごとに設けられている。第1電極20は発光部ELPのアノード電極として機能する。隔壁部30は、隣接する第1電極20の間に設けられ、発光部ELPの各々を離隔する。隔壁部30の断面形状は、傾斜面を有する略台形形状(テーパー形状)である。隔壁部30と隔壁部30の間には、第1電極20側を底部とし逆側が開いた略円形の開口が形成されている。 The first electrode 20 is made of, for example, an aluminum-copper alloy (AlCu), and is provided for each light emitting unit ELP. The first electrode 20 functions as an anode electrode of the light emitting unit ELP. The partition wall portion 30 is provided between the adjacent first electrodes 20 and separates each of the light emitting portions ELP. The cross-sectional shape of the partition wall portion 30 is a substantially trapezoidal shape (tapered shape) having an inclined surface. A substantially circular opening is formed between the partition wall portion 30 and the partition wall portion 30 with the first electrode 20 side as the bottom and the opposite side open.
 第1電極20上と隔壁部30上を含む全面に、有機層50と第2電極60とが積層されている。発光部ELPは、正孔輸送層、発光層、電子輸送層などを備えた有機層50が、第1電極20と第2電極60とで挟まれることによって構成される。発光部ELPへの水分の浸透などを防ぐため、第2電極60上には保護層70が積層されている。 The organic layer 50 and the second electrode 60 are laminated on the entire surface including the first electrode 20 and the partition wall 30. The light emitting unit ELP is configured by sandwiching an organic layer 50 including a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer, an electron transport layer, and the like between a first electrode 20 and a second electrode 60. A protective layer 70 is laminated on the second electrode 60 in order to prevent the permeation of water into the light emitting portion ELP.
 有機層50は多層構造であるが、図においてはこれを一層で示した。有機層50は、赤色発光層、緑色発光層、及び、青色発光層などが積層された構造であって、白色を発光する。 The organic layer 50 has a multi-layer structure, but this is shown as a single layer in the figure. The organic layer 50 has a structure in which a red light emitting layer, a green light emitting layer, a blue light emitting layer, and the like are laminated, and emits white light.
 保護層70上には充填層80が形成されており、隔壁部30と隔壁部30との間の凹部は充填層80によって埋められている。そして、充填層80上には、表示すべき色に応じたカラーフィルタ90が設けられている。更に、図示せぬ透明な対向基板が配置されていてもよい。 A filling layer 80 is formed on the protective layer 70, and the recess between the partition wall portion 30 and the partition wall portion 30 is filled with the filling layer 80. A color filter 90 corresponding to the color to be displayed is provided on the packing layer 80. Further, a transparent facing substrate (not shown) may be arranged.
 上述したように、隔壁部30における第1電極20側の側面の部分に、隔壁部30の内部に向かう凹部GPが設けられている。凹部GPの高さや幅は、概ね、有機層50の膜厚の10パーセントないし100パーセント程度に設定されており、例えば、30ナノメートル程度といった値である。 As described above, a recess GP toward the inside of the partition wall 30 is provided on the side surface portion of the partition wall 30 on the first electrode 20 side. The height and width of the recess GP are generally set to about 10% to 100% of the film thickness of the organic layer 50, and are, for example, about 30 nanometers.
 光反射面RSや基材31の端部と、第1電極20の間に凹部GPによる空隙が設けられているので、第1電極20から注入される電荷が隔壁部30の表面を介して隣接する第1電極20にリークしたり、隔壁部30の端部で有機層50が異常に発光したりすることが抑制される。また、凹部GPに入射する光の一部を反射して外部に取り出すこともできるので、発光効率も向上する。 Since a gap due to the recess GP is provided between the end of the light reflecting surface RS or the base material 31 and the first electrode 20, the electric charge injected from the first electrode 20 is adjacent via the surface of the partition wall 30. Leakage to the first electrode 20 and abnormal light emission of the organic layer 50 at the end of the partition wall 30 are suppressed. Further, since a part of the light incident on the recess GP can be reflected and taken out to the outside, the luminous efficiency is also improved.
 尚、コントラストの向上のために、例えば、所謂ブラックマトリクスを構成する遮光層が設けられていてもよい。遮蔽層は、例えば、クロム(Cr)、あるいは又、グラファイトなどの材料を用いて構成することができる。遮蔽層は、カラーフィルタ90と同層に形成されていてもよいし、カラーフィルタ90とは異なる層に形成されていてもよい。 In order to improve the contrast, for example, a light-shielding layer constituting a so-called black matrix may be provided. The shielding layer can be constructed using, for example, a material such as chromium (Cr) or graphite. The shielding layer may be formed in the same layer as the color filter 90, or may be formed in a layer different from the color filter 90.
 また、発光効率の更なる向上を図るために、発光部の上部に集光用のマイクロレンズが配置されていてもよい。マイクロレンズの形状は特に限定するものではなく、例えば半球状や円筒状といった形状とすることができる。 Further, in order to further improve the luminous efficiency, a microlens for condensing may be arranged above the light emitting portion. The shape of the microlens is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a hemispherical shape or a cylindrical shape.
 引き続き、表示装置1の製造方法について説明する。 Next, the manufacturing method of the display device 1 will be described.
 以下詳しく説明するように、表示装置1の製造方法は、

 隣接する第1電極の間に対応する領域に隔壁部を形成する工程、及び、
 第1電極上と隔壁部上を含む全面に、有機層と第2電極とを積層する工程、
を有している。隔壁部を形成する工程は、隔壁部における第1電極側の側面の部分に隔壁部の内部に向かう凹部を設ける工程と、隔壁部に金属層から成る光反射面を設ける工程とを含む。後述する他の実施形態においても同様である。
As will be described in detail below, the method of manufacturing the display device 1 is as follows.

The step of forming a partition wall in the corresponding region between the adjacent first electrodes, and
A step of laminating an organic layer and a second electrode on the entire surface including the first electrode and the partition wall,
have. The step of forming the partition wall portion includes a step of providing a recess toward the inside of the partition wall portion on a side surface portion of the partition wall portion on the first electrode side, and a step of providing a light reflecting surface made of a metal layer on the partition wall portion. The same applies to other embodiments described later.
 図3ないし図7は、第1の実施形態に係る表示装置の製造方法を説明するための模式的な一部端面図である。 3 to 7 are schematic partial end view views for explaining the manufacturing method of the display device according to the first embodiment.
  [工程-100](図3A,図3Bおよび図3C参照)
 先ず、基板10上に第1電極20を形成する。具体的には、基板10を準備し(図3A参照)、その上に、例えばアルミニウム銅合金(AlCu)から成る金属材料層20Aを形成する(図3B参照)。次いで、第1電極20に相当する部分をマスクで覆い、エッチングを施すことで第1電極20を得る(図3C参照)。
[Step-100] (see FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C)
First, the first electrode 20 is formed on the substrate 10. Specifically, a substrate 10 is prepared (see FIG. 3A), and a metal material layer 20A made of, for example, an aluminum-copper alloy (AlCu) is formed on the substrate 10 (see FIG. 3B). Next, the portion corresponding to the first electrode 20 is covered with a mask and etched to obtain the first electrode 20 (see FIG. 3C).
  [工程-110](図4A、図4B、図5A、図5B、図6Aおよび図6B参照)
 その後、基板10上に隔壁部30を形成する。先ず、第1電極20上を含む基板10上の全面に、絶縁材料層31Aを形成する(図4A参照)。次いで、基材31に相当する部分をマスクで覆い、エッチングを施して、基材31を形成する(図4B参照)。尚、このエッチングでは、基材31と基材31との間の第1電極20が露出するように処理を施す。
[Step-110] (see FIGS. 4A, 4B, 5A, 5B, 6A and 6B).
After that, the partition wall portion 30 is formed on the substrate 10. First, the insulating material layer 31A is formed on the entire surface of the substrate 10 including the first electrode 20 (see FIG. 4A). Next, the portion corresponding to the base material 31 is covered with a mask and etched to form the base material 31 (see FIG. 4B). In this etching, a treatment is performed so that the first electrode 20 between the base material 31 and the base material 31 is exposed.
 その後、露出した第1電極20の部分を基材31と同様の材料を用いた絶縁材料層39で覆った後(図5A参照)、全面に、金属材料層32Aを形成する(図5B参照)。次いで、絶縁材料層39上の金属材料層32Aを除去して基材31上に金属層32を形成する(図6A)。その後、絶縁材料層39をエッチングで除去する。基材31の第1電極20側の側面には金属層32は形成されていないので、このエッチング処理によって基材31に凹部GPが形成される(図6B参照)。 Then, after covering the exposed portion of the first electrode 20 with an insulating material layer 39 using the same material as the base material 31 (see FIG. 5A), a metal material layer 32A is formed on the entire surface (see FIG. 5B). .. Next, the metal material layer 32A on the insulating material layer 39 is removed to form the metal layer 32 on the base material 31 (FIG. 6A). Then, the insulating material layer 39 is removed by etching. Since the metal layer 32 is not formed on the side surface of the base material 31 on the side of the first electrode 20, a recess GP is formed in the base material 31 by this etching process (see FIG. 6B).
  [工程-120](図7Aおよび図7B参照)

 以上、第1の実施形態に係る表示装置1の製造方法について説明した。 The manufacturing method of the display device 1 according to the first embodiment has been described above.
 引き続き、第1の実施形態に係る表示装置の変形例について説明する。 Subsequently, a modified example of the display device according to the first embodiment will be described.
 図8は、第1の実施形態の変形例に係る表示装置の模式的な一部断面図である。変形例に係る表示装置1Aの模式的な平面図は、図1において表示装置1を表示装置1Aと読み替えればよい。 FIG. 8 is a schematic partial cross-sectional view of the display device according to the modified example of the first embodiment. In the schematic plan view of the display device 1A according to the modified example, the display device 1 may be read as the display device 1A in FIG.
 表示装置1Aにおいても、第1電極20と有機層50と第2電極60とが積層されて成る発光部ELPが、基板10上に、2次元マトリクス状に配列して形成されている。第1電極20は発光部ELPごとに設けられている。隣接する第1電極20の間には隔壁部130が形成されており、第1電極20上と隔壁部130上を含む全面に、有機層50と第2電極60とが積層されている。第2電極60上を含む全面には、保護層70と充填層80とが順次成膜されており、その上に、表示すべき色に応じたカラーフィルタ90が形成されている。 Also in the display device 1A, the light emitting portion ELP formed by laminating the first electrode 20, the organic layer 50, and the second electrode 60 is formed on the substrate 10 by arranging them in a two-dimensional matrix. The first electrode 20 is provided for each light emitting unit ELP. A partition wall 130 is formed between the adjacent first electrodes 20, and the organic layer 50 and the second electrode 60 are laminated on the entire surface including the first electrode 20 and the partition wall 130. A protective layer 70 and a filling layer 80 are sequentially formed on the entire surface including the second electrode 60, and a color filter 90 corresponding to the color to be displayed is formed on the protective layer 70.
 表示装置1Aにおいて、隔壁部130は、絶縁材料から成る基材131と、基材131の上部に形成され、基材131に対して庇状に突出する形状の金属層132とから成る。表示装置1Aにあっては、金属層132の斜面が光反射面RSを構成する。そして、表示装置1と同様に、隔壁部130における第1電極20側の側面の部分には、隔壁部130の内部に向かう凹部GPが設けられている。 In the display device 1A, the partition wall 130 is composed of a base material 131 made of an insulating material and a metal layer 132 formed on the base material 131 and protruding like a canopy with respect to the base material 131. In the display device 1A, the slope of the metal layer 132 constitutes the light reflecting surface RS. Further, similarly to the display device 1, a recess GP toward the inside of the partition wall 130 is provided on the side surface portion of the partition wall 130 on the first electrode 20 side.
 凹部GPによる空隙が設けられているので、表示装置1において説明したのと同様に、第1電極20から注入される電荷が隔壁部130の表面を介して隣接する第1電極20にリークしたり、隔壁部130の端部で有機層50が異常に発光したりすることが抑制される。また、凹部GPに入射する光の一部を反射して外部に取り出すこともできるので、発光効率も向上する。 Since the gap due to the recess GP is provided, the electric charge injected from the first electrode 20 may leak to the adjacent first electrode 20 through the surface of the partition wall 130, as described in the display device 1. , It is suppressed that the organic layer 50 emits light abnormally at the end of the partition wall 130. Further, since a part of the light incident on the recess GP can be reflected and taken out to the outside, the luminous efficiency is also improved.
 引き続き、表示装置1Aの製造方法について説明する。 Next, the manufacturing method of the display device 1A will be described.

In the schematic plan view of the display device 3 according to the third embodiment, the display device 1 may be read as the display device 3 in FIG.
 表示装置3においても、第1電極320と有機層50と第2電極60とが積層されて成る発光部ELPが、基板10上に、2次元マトリクス状に配列して形成されている。第1電極320は発光部ELPごとに設けられている。隣接する第1電極20の間には隔壁部330が形成されており、第1電極320上と隔壁部330上を含む全面に、有機層50と第2電極60とが積層されている。第2電極60上を含む全面には、保護層70と充填層80とが順次成膜されており、その上に、表示すべき色に応じたカラーフィルタ90が形成されている。 Also in the display device 3, the light emitting portion ELP formed by laminating the first electrode 320, the organic layer 50, and the second electrode 60 is formed on the substrate 10 by arranging them in a two-dimensional matrix. The first electrode 320 is provided for each light emitting unit ELP. A partition wall 330 is formed between the adjacent first electrodes 20, and the organic layer 50 and the second electrode 60 are laminated on the entire surface including the first electrode 320 and the partition wall 330. A protective layer 70 and a filling layer 80 are sequentially formed on the entire surface including the second electrode 60, and a color filter 90 corresponding to the color to be displayed is formed on the protective layer 70.
 表示装置3においても、隔壁部330は、絶縁材料から成り凹部GPが設けられている基材331と、凹部GPを除く基材331の表面に形成された金属層332とから成る。但し、隔壁部330の基材331は、第1の絶縁材料層から構成された下層部331Bと、下層部331Bに対して庇状に突出する形状の、第2の絶縁材料層から構成された上層部331Tとから成る。更に、第1電極320は隔壁部330の金属層332と同層の金属層によって形成されている。 Also in the display device 3, the partition wall portion 330 is composed of a base material 331 made of an insulating material and provided with a recess GP, and a metal layer 332 formed on the surface of the base material 331 excluding the recess GP. However, the base material 331 of the partition wall portion 330 is composed of a lower layer portion 331B composed of a first insulating material layer and a second insulating material layer having a shape protruding in an eaves shape with respect to the lower layer portion 331B. It is composed of an upper layer portion 331T. Further, the first electrode 320 is formed of a metal layer in the same layer as the metal layer 332 of the partition wall 330.
 凹部GPによる空隙が設けられているので、表示装置1において説明したのと同様に、第1電極320から注入される電荷が隔壁部330の表面を介して隣接する第1電極320にリークしたり、隔壁部330の端部で有機層50が異常に発光したりすることが抑制される。また、凹部GPに入射する光の一部を反射して外部に取り出すこともできるので、発光効率も向上する。 Since the gap due to the recess GP is provided, the electric charge injected from the first electrode 320 may leak to the adjacent first electrode 320 through the surface of the partition wall 330, as described in the display device 1.

 引き続き、表示装置3の製造方法について説明する。 Next, the manufacturing method of the display device 3 will be described.
 図16および図17は、表示装置3の製造方法を説明するための模式的な一部端面図である。 16 and 17 are schematic partial end views for explaining the manufacturing method of the display device 3.
 以下詳しく説明するように、表示装置3の製造方法においては、隔壁部330の下層部331Bと下層部331Bに対して庇状に突出する形状の上層部331Tを形成することによって、隔壁部330における第1電極320側の側面の部分に隔壁部330の内部に向かう凹部GPを設ける。 As will be described in detail below, in the manufacturing method of the display device 3, the partition wall portion 330 is formed by forming the upper layer portion 331T having a shape protruding in an eaves shape with respect to the lower layer portion 331B and the lower layer portion 331B of the partition wall portion 330. A recess GP facing the inside of the partition wall 330 is provided on the side surface of the first electrode 320.
 そして、隔壁部330を形成する工程と第1電極320を形成する工程を、
 隣接する第1電極320の間に対応する領域に、下層部331Bを構成する第1の絶縁材料層と下層部331Bに対して庇状に突出する形状の上層部331Tを構成する第2の絶縁材料層を形成する工程と、
 全面に金属層332を形成し、以って、隔壁部330に金属層332から成る光反射面RSを形成し且つ上層部331Tの庇によって分断された金属層332を含む第1電極320を形成する工程、
によって行う。
Then, the step of forming the partition wall portion 330 and the step of forming the first electrode 320 are performed.
In the corresponding region between the adjacent first electrodes 320, the first insulating material layer constituting the lower layer portion 331B and the second insulating material forming the upper layer portion 331T having a shape protruding in an eaves shape with respect to the lower layer portion 331B. The process of forming the material layer and
A metal layer 332 is formed on the entire surface, thus a light reflecting surface RS composed of a metal layer 332 is formed on the partition wall 330, and a first electrode 320 including a metal layer 332 separated by the eaves of the upper layer 331T is formed. Process,
Do by.
 また、全面に金属層332を形成した後に連続して全面に有機層50を積層する工程を行う。 Further, after forming the metal layer 332 on the entire surface, a step of continuously laminating the organic layer 50 on the entire surface is performed.
  [工程-300](図16Aおよび図16B参照)
 先ず、基板10上に隔壁部330の基材331を形成する。具体的には、基板10を準備し(図3A参照)、その上に、第1の絶縁材料層331Bと第2の絶縁材料層331Tとを順次積層する。次いで、隔壁部330に対応する部分にマスクを配置し、エッチング処理を施す。尚、エッチング処理の際に、絶縁材料層331Bの上部側がよりエッチングされるように処理を行う(図16A参照)。引き続き、第1の絶縁材料層331Bを選択的にエッチングすることによって、下層部331Bを構成する第1の絶縁材料層と下層部331Bに対して庇状に突出する形状の上層部331Tを構成する第2の絶縁材料層を形成する(図16B参照)。
[Step-300] (see FIGS. 16A and 16B)
First, the base material 331 of the partition wall 330 is formed on the substrate 10. Specifically, the substrate 10 is prepared (see FIG. 3A), and the first insulating material layer 331B and the second insulating material layer 331T are sequentially laminated on the substrate 10. Next, a mask is placed on the portion corresponding to the partition wall portion 330, and etching treatment is performed. At the time of the etching process, the process is performed so that the upper side of the insulating material layer 331B is more etched (see FIG. 16A). Subsequently, by selectively etching the first insulating material layer 331B, the first insulating material layer constituting the lower layer portion 331B and the upper layer portion 331T having a shape protruding in an eaves shape with respect to the lower layer portion 331B are formed. A second insulating material layer is formed (see FIG. 16B).
  [工程-310](図17Aおよび図17B参照)
 その後、全面に金属層332を形成する。金属層332の厚さを第1の絶縁材料層331Bよりも薄く設定することによって、第2の絶縁材料層331Tの庇部分で金属層332は分断される(図17A参照)。基材331上の金属層332によって、金属層332から成る光反射面RSが形成される。また、分断された金属層332によって、第1電極320が形成される。
[Step-310] (see FIGS. 17A and 17B)
After that, a metal layer 332 is formed on the entire surface. By setting the thickness of the metal layer 332 to be thinner than that of the first insulating material layer 331B, the metal layer 332 is divided at the eaves portion of the second insulating material layer 331T (see FIG. 17A). The metal layer 332 on the base material 331 forms a light reflecting surface RS composed of the metal layer 332. Further, the first electrode 320 is formed by the divided metal layer 332.
 次いで、連続して全面に有機層50を積層する工程を行い、その後、第2電極60を形成する(図17B参照)。金属層332と有機層50を連続して形成するので、金属層332と有機層50との界面に酸化膜などが形成されることがない。これによって、発光部ELPの発光特性を向上させることができる。尚、有機層50を上層部331Tの庇によって分断させないようにするには、金属層332と有機層50の膜厚の総和が、第1の絶縁材料層331Bの膜厚を超えるようにすればよい。 Next, a step of continuously laminating the organic layer 50 on the entire surface is performed, and then the second electrode 60 is formed (see FIG. 17B). Since the metal layer 332 and the organic layer 50 are continuously formed, no oxide film or the like is formed at the interface between the metal layer 332 and the organic layer 50. This makes it possible to improve the light emitting characteristics of the light emitting unit ELP. In order to prevent the organic layer 50 from being divided by the eaves of the upper layer portion 331T, the total film thickness of the metal layer 332 and the organic layer 50 should exceed the film thickness of the first insulating material layer 331B. good.
  [工程-320]
 その後、保護層70、充填層80を順次形成し、次いで、カラーフィルタ90を配置することによって、表示装置3を得ることができる。
[Process-320]
After that, the display device 3 can be obtained by sequentially forming the protective layer 70 and the filling layer 80, and then arranging the color filter 90.

 表示装置3Aにあっては、下層部331Bを構成する第1の絶縁材料層と上層部331Tを構成する第2の絶縁材料層とが、それぞれ逆テーパ状となるように形成されている。この構成においても、隔壁部330は、絶縁材料から成り凹部GPが設けられている基材331と、凹部GPを除く基材331の表面に形成された金属層332から構成されている。表示装置3Aの製造方法は、第1の絶縁材料層331Bを逆テーパ状にエッチングする点が相違する他は、表示装置3の製造方法と同様であるので説明を省略する。 In the display device 3A, the first insulating material layer constituting the lower layer portion 331B and the second insulating material layer constituting the upper layer portion 331T are formed so as to have an inverted taper shape, respectively. Also in this configuration, the partition wall portion 330 is composed of a base material 331 made of an insulating material and provided with a recess GP, and a metal layer 332 formed on the surface of the base material 331 excluding the recess GP.

In the fourth embodiment, the first electrode 420 is different in that the divided metal layer 332 is laminated on the lower electrode 421 provided in advance on the substrate. Other than the above points, the other configurations are the same as the configurations described in the display device 3.
 引き続き、表示装置4の製造方法について説明する。 Next, the manufacturing method of the display device 4 will be described.
 図20および図21は、表示装置4の製造方法を説明するための模式的な一部端面図である。 20 and 21 are schematic partial end views for explaining the manufacturing method of the display device 4.
  [工程-400](図20A参照)
 先ず、基板10の発光部ELPに対応する部分に下層電極421を形成する。下層電極421は、基板10に設けられた図示せぬコンタクト部を覆うように形成されている。これによって、発光部ELPの駆動回路などとの接続を確実に確保することができる。
[Step-400] (see FIG. 20A)
First, the lower layer electrode 421 is formed on the portion of the substrate 10 corresponding to the light emitting portion ELP. The lower layer electrode 421 is formed so as to cover a contact portion (not shown) provided on the substrate 10. As a result, it is possible to reliably secure the connection with the drive circuit of the light emitting unit ELP and the like.
  [工程-410](図20B参照)
 次いで、基板10上に隔壁部330の基材331を形成する。基本的には、第3の実施形態において説明した[工程-300]と同様の工程を行い、下層部331Bを構成する第1の絶縁材料層と下層部331Bに対して庇状に突出する形状の上層部331Tを構成する第2の絶縁材料層を形成する。
[Step-410] (see FIG. 20B)
Next, the base material 331 of the partition wall 330 is formed on the substrate 10. Basically, the same steps as in [Step-300] described in the third embodiment are performed, and the shape protrudes like an eaves with respect to the first insulating material layer and the lower layer portion 331B constituting the lower layer portion 331B. A second insulating material layer constituting the upper layer portion 331T is formed.
  [工程-420](図21A参照)
 その後、全面に金属層332を形成する。金属層332の厚さを第1の絶縁材料層331Bよりも薄く設定することによって、第2の絶縁材料層331Tの庇部分で金属層332は分断される。基材331上の金属層332によって、金属層332から成る光反射面RSが形成される。また、下層電極421と分断された金属層332によって、第1電極420が形成される。
[Step-420] (see FIG. 21A)
After that, a metal layer 332 is formed on the entire surface. By setting the thickness of the metal layer 332 to be thinner than that of the first insulating material layer 331B, the metal layer 332 is divided at the eaves portion of the second insulating material layer 331T. The metal layer 332 on the base material 331 forms a light reflecting surface RS composed of the metal layer 332. Further, the first electrode 420 is formed by the metal layer 332 separated from the lower electrode 421.
  [工程-430](図21B参照)
 次いで、連続して全面に有機層50を積層する工程を行い、その後、第2電極60を形成する。金属層332と有機層50を連続して形成するので、金属層332と有機層50との界面に酸化膜などが形成されることがない。これによって、発光部ELPの発光特性を向上させることができる。尚、有機層50を上層部331Tの庇によって分断させないようにするには、金属層332と有機層50の膜厚の総和が、第1の絶縁材料層331Bの膜厚を超えるようにすればよい。
[Step-430] (see FIG. 21B)
Next, a step of continuously laminating the organic layer 50 on the entire surface is performed, and then the second electrode 60 is formed. Since the metal layer 332 and the organic layer 50 are continuously formed, no oxide film or the like is formed at the interface between the metal layer 332 and the organic layer 50. This makes it possible to improve the light emitting characteristics of the light emitting unit ELP. In order to prevent the organic layer 50 from being divided by the eaves of the upper layer portion 331T, the total film thickness of the metal layer 332 and the organic layer 50 should exceed the film thickness of the first insulating material layer 331B. good.
  [工程-440]
 その後、保護層70、充填層80を順次形成し、次いで、カラーフィルタ90を配置することによって、表示装置4を得ることができる。
[Step-440]
After that, the display device 4 can be obtained by sequentially forming the protective layer 70 and the filling layer 80, and then arranging the color filter 90.

A transparent conductive material layer 533 is formed on the surface of the metal layer 532 of the partition wall portion 530. Further, the first electrode 520 is covered with a transparent conductive material layer which is the same layer as the transparent conductive material layer 533 of the partition wall portion 530.
 引き続き、表示装置5の製造方法について説明する。 Next, the manufacturing method of the display device 5 will be described.
 図23は、表示装置5の製造方法を説明するための模式的な一部端面図である。 FIG. 23 is a schematic partial end view for explaining the manufacturing method of the display device 5.
 以下詳しく説明するように、表示装置5の製造方法においては、隔壁部の下層部を構成する第1の絶縁材料層と下層部に対して庇状に突出する形状の上層部を構成する金属層を形成することによって、隔壁部における第1電極側の側面の部分に隔壁部の内部に向かう凹部を設ける。 As will be described in detail below, in the manufacturing method of the display device 5, the first insulating material layer constituting the lower layer portion of the partition wall portion and the metal layer constituting the upper layer portion having a shape protruding in an eaves shape with respect to the lower layer portion. By forming the above, a recess toward the inside of the partition wall is provided on the side surface portion of the partition wall portion on the first electrode side.
 そして、隔壁部530を形成する工程と第1電極520を形成する工程を、
 第1電極520に対応する領域に下層電極421を形成する工程と、
 次いで、隣接する下層電極421の間に、下層部を構成する第1の絶縁材料層531と下層部に対して庇状に突出する形状の上層部を構成する金属層532を形成する工程と、

によって行う。
Then, the step of forming the partition wall portion 530 and the step of forming the first electrode 520 are performed.
The step of forming the lower electrode 421 in the region corresponding to the first electrode 520 and the process of forming the lower electrode 421.
Next, between the adjacent lower layer electrodes 421, a step of forming a first insulating material layer 531 constituting the lower layer portion and a metal layer 532 forming the upper layer portion having a shape protruding in an eaves shape with respect to the lower layer portion, and a step of forming the metal layer 532.
A step of forming a transparent conductive material layer 533 on the entire surface including the partition wall portion 530, and thus forming a first electrode 520 including the transparent conductive material layer 533 separated by the eaves of the metal layer 532 of the upper layer portion.
Do by.
  [工程-500](図23A参照)。
 先ず、基板10の発光部ELPに対応する部分に下層電極421を形成する。基本的には、第4の実施形態における[工程-400]と同様の工程を行う。次いで、基板10上に隔壁部530を形成する。上層部532が金属材料から構成されている点が相違する他は、第3の実施形態において説明した[工程-300]と同様の工程を行い、下層部531を構成する第1の絶縁材料層と下層部531に対して庇状に突出する形状の上層部532を構成する金属層を形成する。金属層532の斜面によって光反射面RSが形成される。
[Step-500] (see FIG. 23A).
First, the lower layer electrode 421 is formed on the portion of the substrate 10 corresponding to the light emitting portion ELP. Basically, the same process as in [Step-400] in the fourth embodiment is performed. Next, the partition wall portion 530 is formed on the substrate 10. A first insulating material layer constituting the lower layer portion 531 is performed in the same manner as in [Step-300] described in the third embodiment, except that the upper layer portion 532 is made of a metal material. And the metal layer constituting the upper layer portion 532 having a shape protruding in an eaves shape with respect to the lower layer portion 531 is formed. The light reflecting surface RS is formed by the slope of the metal layer 532.
  [工程-510](図23B参照)
 その後、全面に、例えば酸化インジウムスズから成る透明導電材料層533を形成する。透明導電材料層533の厚さを第1の絶縁材料層531よりも薄く設定することによって、金属層532の庇部分で透明導電材料層533は分断される。下層電極421と分断された透明導電材料層533によって、第1電極520が形成される。
[Step-510] (see FIG. 23B)
Then, a transparent conductive material layer 533 made of, for example, indium tin oxide is formed on the entire surface. By setting the thickness of the transparent conductive material layer 533 to be thinner than that of the first insulating material layer 531, the transparent conductive material layer 533 is divided at the eaves portion of the metal layer 532. The first electrode 520 is formed by the transparent conductive material layer 533 separated from the lower electrode 421.
  [工程-520]
 次いで、連続して全面に有機層50を積層する工程を行い、その後、第2電極60を形成する。透明導電材料層533と有機層50を連続して形成するので、透明導電材料層533と有機層50との界面に酸化膜などが形成されることがない。これによって、発光部ELPの発光特性を向上させることができる。尚、有機層50を金属層532の庇によって分断させないようにするには、透明導電材料層533と有機層50の膜厚の総和が、下層部531の膜厚を超えるようにすればよい。
[Process-520]
Next, a step of continuously laminating the organic layer 50 on the entire surface is performed, and then the second electrode 60 is formed. Since the transparent conductive material layer 533 and the organic layer 50 are continuously formed, no oxide film or the like is formed at the interface between the transparent conductive material layer 533 and the organic layer 50. This makes it possible to improve the light emitting characteristics of the light emitting unit ELP. In order to prevent the organic layer 50 from being divided by the eaves of the metal layer 532, the total film thickness of the transparent conductive material layer 533 and the organic layer 50 may exceed the film thickness of the lower layer portion 531.
  [工程-530]
 その後、第4の実施形態において説明した[工程-430]と[工程-440]を行うことによって、表示装置5を得ることができる。
[Process-530]
After that, the display device 5 can be obtained by performing [Step-430] and [Step-440] described in the fourth embodiment.

For example, the numerical values, structures, processes, etc. mentioned in the above-described embodiments are merely examples, and numerical values, structures, processes, etc. different from these may be used as necessary.
 例えば、隔壁部の金属層を省略し、隔壁部の絶縁材料とその上に形成される有機層との間の屈折率差を利用して界面で光を全反射させるといった構成においても、隔壁部における第1電極側の側面の部分に凹部を設けることによって、光取出し効率を向上させることができ、隣接する画素間におけるリークなどを低減することができる。 For example, even in a configuration in which the metal layer of the partition wall is omitted and light is totally reflected at the interface by utilizing the difference in refractive index between the insulating material of the partition wall and the organic layer formed on the insulating material of the partition wall, the partition wall is also used. By providing a concave portion on the side surface portion on the first electrode side in the above, the light extraction efficiency can be improved and leakage between adjacent pixels can be reduced.
