A method of producing a functional device which comprises forming a
functional layer containing an organic material, an electrode layer and
an insulating layer on a substrate, wherein the step of forming the
insulating layer is effected with a temperature T of the substrate being
controlled to satisfy the following relationship:
T.ltoreq.Tg.times.(.DELTA.E2/.DELTA.E1) where Tg is a glass transition
temperature of the organic material, .DELTA.E1 is an activation energy
for crystallization of the organic material measured while the electrode
layer and the insulating layer are not stacked on the functional layer
and .DELTA.E2 is an activation energy for crystallization of the organic
material while the electrode layer is formed on the functional layer.
