Organic electroluminescent device and method for manufacturing the same

An organic electroluminescent device comprising:

• a first substrate as a supporting substrate;
• a first electrode provided on a mounting surface of the first substrate;
• an organic layer that is provided on the first electrode and includes at least an organic light-emitting layer;
• a second electrode provided on the organic layer;
• and
• a sealing film having a region that contains an ultraviolet light absorber and covers the second electrode layer configured to cover at least a region superimposed over the organic layer, and enclosing the organic layer with the first substrate to block the organic layer from ambient air.

A method for manufacturing an organic electroluminescent device, comprising the steps of:

• forming a first electrode on a first substrate as a supporting substrate;
• forming an organic layer including at least an organic light-emitting layer on a mounting surface of the first electrode;
• forming a second electrode on the organic layer;
• forming a resin layer containing an ultraviolet light absorber, over the second electrode, configured to cover at least a region superimposed over the organic layer;
• and
• forming a second substrate that covers the resin layer and encloses the organic layer with the first substrate to block the organic layer from ambient air.
