Method and apparatus for manufacturing organic electroluminescent device, electronic apparatus and method of removing ionic impurities

Abstract

A method of manufacturing an organic electroluminescent device having a functional layer formed by at least a light emitting layer positioned between a pair of electrodes, the method includes the steps of storing a liquid material in a container, the liquid material obtained by dissolving a material for forming the functional layer in a solvent or by dispersing the material for forming the functional layer in a dispersion medium, removing clusters contained in the liquid material, supplying the liquid material to a droplet discharge head, discharging the liquid material from the droplet discharge head, and forming the functional layer by discharging the liquid material onto a substrate.
