Abstract
A display apparatus having electroluminescense (EL) elements includes a light emitting layer for generating light. A high energy laser beam is irradiated on the luminous element layer to define a plurality of regions of the light emitting layer. A plurality of first electrodes are arranged generally parallel to each other over a first surface of the light emitting layer and a plurality of second electrodes are arranged generally parallel to one another and perpendicular to the first electrodes on a second, opposite surface of the light emitting. The EL elements are formed at the intersections of the first and second electrodes.
Claims34
A display apparatus of an active matrix system comprising:
- a light emitting layer having a first surface and a second surface opposite to said first surface and arranged in a matrix form;
