A glass substrate of a display panel onto which an organic
electroluminescence (EL) element or the like is formed is sealed by
affixing the glass substrate and a sealing member such as a sealing glass
onto which an adhesive has been applied. During this process, the
temperature of the adhesive is controlled by, for example, controlling
the temperature of the nitrogen gas to fill a chamber through a
temperature adjusting device, so that the viscosity of the adhesive is
adjusted. In this manner, quick and precise sealing of the display
substrate by the sealing member and the adhesive can be achieved.
