PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To inhibit the rise of the voltage in the constant current driving and to elongate the luminance half life with high luminescence by forming an electron transfer layer of a specific thickness including a specific amount of a chelate complex, between a luminescent layer held between an anode and a cathode and including an organic luminescent material, and the cathode. SOLUTION: An organic electroluminescent element is manufactured by successively forming an anode of ITO or the like, a hole transfer layer of TPD or the like, a luminescent layer of tris(8-quinolinolato)aluminum(Alq) or the like, an electron transfer layer of bis(8-quinolinolato)zinc(Znq) or the like, and a cathode of MgAg alloy or the like, on a substrate such as a quarts plate or the like. An electron transfer layer formed between this luminescent layer and the cathode includes at least 30 mol% of a chelate complex represented by a formula (in the formula, R1-R6 are independently a hydrogen atom, a cyano group, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, an aryl group, an aryloxy group, an acyl group, an aralkyl group or an aralkyloxy group, M is Zn or Mg, (m) is 1 or 2, L is an alkoxy group or an aryloxy group, and (p) is 0 or 1), and its thickness is 1-15 nm in total.
