In the following, the element structure that the manufacturing device 1000 of the element structure as involved in present embodiment is manufactured
Other examples are illustrated.
The element knot in this example manufactured for the manufacturing device 1000 of the element structure as involved in present embodiment
For structure body 10, resinous wood is not limited solely to unevenly be present in the boundary portion as around the first inorganic material layer 41 (protrusion)
The structure of 2b, such as can also be in the positive 2a or the positive 41a of the first inorganic material layer 41 etc. of the substrate 2 other than boundary portion 2b
Remain the resinous wood.
In this case, as shown in figure 12, the second inorganic material layer 42 (second layer) has via 52 layers of the second resinous wood
It is stacked in the region on the first inorganic material layer 41.Second resinous wood 52 is present in the first inorganic material layer 41 and the second inorganic material
Between layer 42, and independently unevenly it is present on the positive 41a of the first inorganic material layer 41 with the first resinous wood 51.Even if
In this case, the adaptation being also able to maintain that between the first inorganic material layer 41 and the second inorganic material layer 42, therefore will not
Damage the barrier properties of element structure 10.
As above-mentioned, according to the present embodiment involved in element structure 10, since the side of device layer 3 is inorganic by first
Material layer 41 (first layer) and the covering of the second inorganic material layer 42 (second layer), therefore moisture or oxygen can be prevented to device layer 3
Intrusion.
In addition, according to the present embodiment, due to that, unevenly there are the first resinous wood 51, can be prevented in boundary portion 2b
The decline of bad with the covering power of the first inorganic material layer 41 or the second inorganic material layer 42 and generation barrier properties, and
And stable element characteristic can be maintained for a long time.
In the following, the element structure that the manufacturing device 1000 of the element structure as involved in present embodiment is manufactured
Other examples are illustrated.
As shown in figure 13, element structure 20 involved in this example further have be present in the first inorganic material layer 41 with
The second resinous wood 52 between second inorganic material layer 42.Second resinous wood 52 and the first resinous wood 51 independently unevenly exist
In on the front of the first inorganic material layer 41.
In the element structure 20 involved in this example, the front of the first inorganic material layer 41 might not be flat, such as
When having been illustrated before film forming and (when substrate transports or be added to before film formation device) or forming a film etc., by keeping particle P mixed
Enter into film and forms concave-convex situation.If being mixed into particle into the first inorganic material layer 41, the first inorganic material layer 41
Coverage property decline to device layer 3, it is possible to be unable to get desired barrier properties.
Therefore, element structure 20 involved in this example has in the first inorganic material generated by being mixed into etc. for particle P
The bad portion of covering of the bed of material 41 is filled with the structure of the second resinous wood 52.Typically, which is unevenly present in
Boundary portion 32b between the front of first inorganic material layer 41 and the circumferential surface of particle P.The spreadability of device layer 3 is mentioned as a result,
Height, and can be carried out and functioning the second resinous wood 52 as substrate the second inorganic material layer 42 it is appropriate at
Film.
Second resinous wood 52 is formed by method same as the first resinous wood 51.Second resinous wood 52 can also by with
The identical resin of first resinous wood 51 is constituted.In this case, 51 He of the first resinous wood can be formed simultaneously in same processes
Second resinous wood 52.
Here, the resinous wood of removal flat etc. is formed as relatively thin part in processing unit 202 is locally present, from
And the first inorganic material layer 41 exposes.At this point, the resinous wood for being formed in periphery particle P etc. is formed thicker and remains.When from
When element structure 20 is vertically observed in top, it is greater than the resin for being formed in particle periphery to the area absoluteness of flat part
The area of material, therefore after the relatively thin resinous wood of removal flat, amount to be etched is greatly decreased, and generate with etching
Reaction sharply reduce.At this point, pressure changes, and bias voltage changes.In this example, it is believed that if terminated
The etching of flat part is then reduced by the gas that etching generates, and pressure decline (plasma density decline), on bias voltage
It rises.
At this point, not removing the resin film 5 of boundary portion 2b, the first resinous wood 51 is formed by being locally present for resin film 5.
Equally, the resin film 5 for not removing boundary portion 32b to form the second resinous wood 52 by being locally present for resin film 5.
In this example, also same as the manufacture of said elements structural body 10, using as the bias voltage of detection device biography
Sensor 229 to measure the bias voltage Vpp for being applied to electrode 226 from high frequency electric source 227, and by the variation of measured value, comes
The unnecessary part of resin film 5 on judgement removal substrate S.By terminating etching process based on the judging result, so as to
Resin film 5 is accurately removed, and exposes the first inorganic material layer 41 (first layer) of flat effectively.In addition, energy
Prevent the over etching for being intended to uneven existing resinous wood 53.In addition, according to this example, due to being made up by the second resinous wood 52
Since the film quality for being mixed into generation of particle P declines, thus ensuring that desired barrier properties, while improving productivity.
