US 2003/0198831 A1 · Organic electroluminescence element

Abstract

An organic electroluminescence element is disclosed which comprises a hole transporting layer containing a hole transporting material, a light emission layer containing a host compound and a phosphorescent compound, a hole blocking layer, and an electron transporting layer, the host compound having a band gap of from 3.3 eV to 5 eV, and having a molecular weight of not less than 500, and relationship c<d being satisfied, wherein c (eV) represents a difference between energy level of LUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) in the hole blocking layer and energy level of LUMO in the light emission layer and d (eV) represents a difference between energy level of HOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital) in the hole blocking layer and energy level of HOMO in the light emission layer.
