Abstract
The present invention addresses the problem of providing a novel aromatic heterocyclic derivative, providing an organic EL element that uses the derivative and has high luminous efficiency, long luminescence life, and few changes over time when used under high temperatures, and providing a display device and an illumination device that are equipped with the organic El element. This aromatic heterocyclic derivative is characterized by having a specific structure which includes a carbazole ring.
