METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING ORGANIC EL ELEMENT

摘要

A method and a device for producing an organic EL element are provided that make it possible to deposit vaporized material from a vapor deposition source in a desired pattern on a substrate without the need for a conventional band-shaped shadow mask. A shield unit (51) is configured to be switchable between: a shield position for shielding a substrate (81), said position being located between a vapor deposition source (4) and the substrate (81); and a shield release position in which the shield unit is withdrawn from between the vapor deposition source (4) and the substrate (81) so that the substrate (81) is no longer shielded. The shielding unit (51) is switched between the shield position and the shield release position while rotating together with a roller (3).
