LIGHT EMITTING ELEMENT AND LIGHT EMITTING DEVICE

摘要

It is an object of the present invention to obtain an organometallic complex that is capable of converting an excited triplet state into luminescence, a light-emitting element that can be driven for a long time, is high in luminous efficiency, and has a favorable long lifetime, and a light-emitting device using the light-emitting element. The present invention provides a light-emitting element that has a pair of electrodes (an anode and a cathode) and a light-emitting layer between a pair of electrodes, where the light-emitting layer includes an organometallic complex represented by the following general formula (5) and one of a compound that has a larger energy gap than the organometallic complex and a compound that has a larger ionization potential and a smaller electron affinity than the organometallic complex, and provides a light-emitting device using the light-emitting device.
