Abstract
A polymer type organic EL element is improved in terms of the stability and the efficiency and intensity of light emission. A carrier injection layer made of discotic liquid crystal or smectic liquid crystal having an electron resonance structure is interposed between a polymer layer and an electrode.
Claims8
An electro-conductive liquid crystal element comprising a pair of oppositely disposed electrodes, an electro-conductive liquid crystal layer formed so as to contact at least one of the electrodes, said electro-conductive liquid crystal layer having in the molecular structure thereof an electron resonance structure and a temperature region showing a liquid crystal phase, and an electro-conductive polymer layer formed so as to contact the electro-conductive liquid crystal layer.
