An electro-luminescent display apparatus which is capable of displaying two kinds of images is disclosed. The apparatus has a front and a rear electro-luminescent unit therein, and the green light emitted from the front unit directly displays the real image which looks close to a viewer while the orange light emitted from the rear unit is reflected by a reflector disposed at the back of the apparatus and displays a virtual image which looks far from the viewer. In order to reflect the light emitted backward from the front unit and the light emitted forward from the rear unit, reflecting electrodes are provided on the rear surface of the front unit or a reflecting film is disposed in the space between the front and the rear units.

A process for producing an electroluminescence element provided with a luminescent layer sandwiched between two electrodes on an insulating substrate, the luminescent layer being composed of a host material with a luminescent center element added. The process comprises a step of forming the aforesaid luminescent layer as a film onto the insulating substrate by either sputtering or evaporation, by use of a source material composed of a compound of an element of Group II and an element of Group VI, to which a halide of a rare earth element is added as the luminescent center element. The atmosphere at the time of the film formation contains either a halogen gas or halide gas. The aforesaid luminescent layer is formed as a film onto the insulating substrate by either sputtering or evaporation, by use of a source material composed of the aforesaid compound of an element of Group II and an element of Group VI, to which a fluoride or fluorine compound of the luminescent center element and a halide other than fluoride of the element of Group II are added. The film formation atmosphere may be pretreated with a chlorine-containing gas prior to a film formation step of forming the luminescent layer as a film onto the insulating substrate by a sputtering method by use of a source material composed of the host material with the luminescent center element. An electro-luminescence element is further disclosed, wherein the X-ray diffraction spectrum thereof has only a single peak at an X-ray diffraction angle from the luminescent layer, ranging from 25.degree. to 30.degree. according to a thin film X-ray diffraction measuring method using Cu-Kd radiation, and no other peaks of the X-ray diffraction spectrum exist at an X-ray diffraction angle of approximately 27.degree..

摘要:
A dry etching method performing dry etching of a material containing zinc forms and patterns a resist on the material to be etched, and etches the material using an etching gas which is a mixed gas of methane gas and an inert gas. A dry etching method that dry etches a material containing zinc etches the material using an etching gas that consists only of methane gas, an inert gas, and hydrogen gas alone. Another dry etching method that dry etches a material containing zinc introduces an etching gas that contains methane gas, an inert gas, and hydrogen gas into a dry etching device, in which the flow rate of the hydrogen gas is set such that it is equal to or greater than the value at which the amount of dissociated hydrogen becomes saturated, and etches the material using the etching gas. An EL element manufacturing method forms a first luminescent material containing zinc in its composition on a first insulated layer, forms a first resist that has a first pattern on the first luminescent material, dry etches the first luminescent material through the first resist, thereby forming the first luminescent layer; forms a second luminescent material having zinc in its composition on the first luminescent layer, forms a second resist on the second luminescent material, and dry etches the second luminescent material through the second resist.
