The present invention provides reduced production cost in a method for manufacturing
an organic EL device including a step of forming a light-emitting layer having
a predetermined pattern ink-jet method. The method achieves this objective by not
forming a bank which surrounds an area in a substrate surface other than an area
at which a light-emitting layer is formed. A solution-repellent treatment is performed
so that a droplet of a liquid containing a light-emitting material has a contact
angle of 15 to 90 with respect to the substrate surface immediately
before formation of the light-emitting layer. Accordingly, a fluorine containing
layer (a layer composed of a material containing fluorine) is formed. Between a
step of forming the light-emitting layer and a step of forming a cathode, a step
of forming a hole blocking layer over the entire surface of the substrate is performed.
