Provided is an organic EL element which withstands mass production of organic EL display panels, and promises driving at a low voltage and high luminous efficiency due to excellent hole-injection efficiency. Specifically, an organic EL element is formed by sequentially laminating an anode, a hole injection layer, a buffer layer, a light-emitting layer, and a cathode on one surface of a substrate. The hole injection layer is a at least 2 nm thick tungsten oxide layer formed under predetermined film forming conditions, and includes an occupied energy level that is 1.8 eV to 3.6 eV lower than a lowest energy level of a valence band of the hole injection layer in terms of a binding energy. This reduces the hole injection barrier between the anode and the hole injection layer and the hole injection barrier between the hole injection layer and the buffer layer.
