Abstract
Disclosed is a method for manufacturing an organic EL element, which has, on a supporting substrate, at least one intermediate electrode layer, and at least two light emitting units, each of which has one or a plurality of organic functional layers, the intermediate electrode layer being disposed between the light emitting units. The method is characterized in having: a first patterning step wherein at least one organic functional layer of each of the light emitting units is patterned using a mask; and a second patterning step wherein at least one organic functional layer in each of the light emitting units is patterned into, by means of light irradiation, a region where a light emitting function is modulated, and a region where the light emitting function is not modulated. The method is also characterized in that the second patterning step is performed for each light emitting unit that is manufactured.
