Light-emitting device and method for manufacturing same

A method for manufacturing a light-emitting device including at least one light-emitting region, the method comprising:

• a lower electrode forming step of forming, in plan view, a lower electrode in the at least one light-emitting region;
• a functional layer forming step of forming a plurality of functional layers above the lower electrode in the at least one light-emitting region;
• and
• an upper electrode forming step of forming an upper electrode, across from at least one lower electrode including the lower electrode, above the plurality of functional layers in the at least one light-emitting region,
• wherein the functional layer forming step includes:
• a first-functional-film depositing step of depositing a first functional film containing a photocurable compound;
• a quantum-dot-containing-film depositing step of depositing a quantum-dot-containing film above, and adjacent to, the first functional film, the quantum-dot-containing film containing the quantum dots, ligands, and photo-crosslinking agent;
• a quantum-dot-containing-film exposing step of exposing a first region, which is a portion of the quantum-dot-containing film, with light to activate the photo-crosslinking agent, and crosslinking the photo-crosslinking agent and the ligands in the first region;
• a first-functional-film exposing step of exposing a second region, which is included in the first functional film and overlaps with the first region, with light to activate the photocurable compound, and curing the photocurable compound in the second region to form a photocurable resin;
• and
• a patterning step of developing to pattern the quantum-dot-containing film and the first functional film, so that the quantum-dot-containing film is patterned to form a light-emitting layer, and the first functional film is patterned to form a first functional layer having an end face flush with an end face of the light-emitting layer.
