Abstract

There is provided a substrate for a light emitting device which includes an electrically conductive and transparent film which is in contact with a surface of a low refractive index member of which refractive index is greater than 1 and not greater than 1.30. In a preferable embodiment, the substrate further comprises a transparent member on its surface which is opposed to its surface which has the electrically conductive and transparent film. There is further provided a light emitting device which includes such substrate and a luminous layer, and the luminous layer is located on the electrically conductive and transparent film.With such light emitting device, a ratio of light which is withdrawn outside through the low refractive index member is increased, so that a coupling-out efficiency for surface emission of light withdrawn into the ambient air is increased.
