An electroluminescent device, including: support substrate 1; a light emitting portion having first electrode 2, light emitting medium 3 and second electrode 4 laminated in this order or the inverse order on support substrate 1; and light scattering portion 5 located at least on the side of light emitting medium 3, containing light scattering fine particle 5a, or light scattering fine particle and fluorescent substance, and having a tapered shape in which a distance from a center of the light emitting portion enlarges upward from the side of support substrate 1, in which, in the light emitting portion, light emitting medium 3 emits light by passing electrical current between first electrode 2 and second electrode 4, and light exiting from light emitting medium 3 and traveling in direction B different from direction A of extracting light is incident on light scattering portion 5 and scattered, or the incident light is absorbed to emit and scatter light, thereby light is extracted from the light scattering portion in direction A.
