ORGANIC ELECTROLUMINESCENCE ELEMENT

摘要

To provide an organic electroluminescence element having a cathode as a top electrode, and excelling in luminance efficiency, drive voltage, and operational life. An organic electroluminescence element in which an anode (12), an organic layer (13), and a transparent cathode (14) are laminated in sequence on a substrate (11), includes: an electron injection layer (15) which is a metal layer having at least either one of an alkaline metal or an alkaline earth metal as a primary component, and which is laminated between the organic layer (13) and the transparent cathode (14); and a fullerene layer (26) which includes fullerenes, and which is laminated between the electron injection layer (15) and the transparent cathode (14). The fullerene layer (26) includes at least either one of an alkaline metal or an alkaline earth metal.
