In forming luminescent areas of organic EL devices of an organic EL
display panel, it is necessary to prevent a display performance
degradation in the vicinity of outermost edges of display area of the
organic EL display panel. A film formation mask is used to form a film
pattern of an organic layer containing a luminescent layer, in a manner
such that the luminescent area formation sections can be covered. The
film formation mask has a plurality of openings according to the film
pattern, and false openings formed outside the area containing the
openings but not useful in forming organic layer for forming luminescent
areas. False openings are formed in positions corresponding to the
outside of display area, and forms false patterns of an organic layer on
the inner side of the adhesive area.
