Methods for forming materials containing both zirconium and platinum, such as platinum-zirconium films, and articles containing such materials. In a dummy pixel, a light blocking layer of the same layer as the scanning line is formed, and a second gate electrode of a second transistor is electrically connected to a scanning line via a second contact hole. The hot-top forms an annular groove about the molten metal flow-down port, and has a barrier between the annular groove and the flow-down port.
