<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bulb type EL lamp using an EL device as a light emitting body, having high vibration resistance and high impact resistance, and capable of extracting light in all the directions perpendicular to the curved surface of the bulb. <P>SOLUTION: The bulb type EL lamp comprises a translucent glass bulb 1, a light emitting body sealed in the bulb 1, a stem 2 sealed to the glass bulb 1 and having a built-in lighting circuit 9 for supplying power to the light emitting body, and a base 4 for mounting the bulb 1 to an outside socket and for receiving power from the socket to supply to the light emitting body through the lighting circuit 9 of the stem 2. The organic EL device 3 comprising a translucent electrode 6 formed on the inside surface of the bulb 1, an organic EL light emitting layer 7 formed on the surface of the translucent electrode 6, and a metal electrode 8 formed on the surface of the organic EL light emitting layer 7, is used as the light emitting body. Since the organic EL device 3 uses a glass bulb as the base body, it is strong against vibration and impact. Light can be emitted in all the directions perpendicular to the curved surface of the glass bulb 1. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
