COATING METHOD, AND COATING APPARATUS

摘要

This aims to provide a coating method capable of applying a plurality of coating liquids of an organic EL material to be used for forming the organic EL layer of an organic EL element and an organic photoelectric conversion element material to be used for forming a layer of an organic photoelectric conversion element, in a stratified manner without damaging the organic EL layer and the organic photoelectric conversion layer, and a coating apparatus using the coating method. This coating method is characterized by clamping a long support which is moved while being wound on a backup roll for supporting and continuously moving the support, by arranging a plurality of coating means at positions opposed to the backup roll, and by coating the support with the coating liquids by the coating means, thereby to form a stratified coating film.
