Abstract
An organic EL element includes a light-transmitting glass substrate, an organic electroluminescence (EL) layer, a frame, a sealing cap, and an adhesive. The organic EL layer is formed on an element formation region of the substrate. The frame is formed on the substrate to surround the element formation region. The frame has a flat upper surface that has absorbed a three-dimensional shape on a surface of the substrate. The sealing cap is to be fixed to an upper surface of the frame. The adhesive adheres the frame and the sealing cap to each other. The adhesive is set at a temperature lower than a heat resistant temperature of the organic EL layer. A method of manufacturing the organic EL element is also disclosed.
