Abstract
The invention provides an organic EL device comprising a substrate, a hole injecting electrode and a negative electrode formed on the substrate, a light emitting layer containing an organic material between the electrodes, an inorganic electron injecting and transporting layer between the light emitting layer and the negative electrode, and an inorganic insulative hole injecting and transporting layer between the light emitting layer and the hole injecting electrode. The inorganic electron injecting and transporting layer contains at least one oxide selected from among strontium oxide, magnesium oxide, calcium oxide, lithium oxide, rubidium oxide, potassium oxide, sodium oxide, and cesium oxide as a main component and silicon oxide and/or germanium oxide as a stabilizer. The inorganic insulative hole injecting and transporting layer (4) contains silicon oxide and/or germanium oxide as a main component, the main component having an average composition represented by the formula: EQU (Si.sub.1-x Ge.sub.x)O.sub.y wherein 0.ltoreq.x.ltoreq.1 and 1.7.ltoreq.y.ltoreq.1.99, as analyzed by Rutherford back-scattering. Organic EL devices having performance comparable to or more than that of …
