CONSTITUTION:On a transparent substrate such as glass is formed a cathode comprising tin oxide, etc., on which is applied a toluene soln., etc., of a conjugated polymer of the formula (wherein Ar is an arylene or arom. heterocyclic group substd. by a group such as a 1-22C alkyl, alkenyl, alkylthio, or 6-22C arom. hydrocarbon group provided it forms the pi electron conjugation with the adjacent arylene or arom. heterocyclic group; and n>5)[e.g. a poly(3- alkyl-2,5-thienylene)] followed by thermal treatment under a reduced pressure, thus forming a luminescent layer with a thickness of 0.5mum to 10mum. On the luminescent layer is formed an electron-transporting layer comprising a benzoquinone compd., etc., followed by the vacuum deposition of an Mg-Ag alloy, etc., to form an electron injection cathode. Thus, the objective element exhibiting a high luminance at a low driving voltage is obtd.

Means for Solving the Problems The inventors of the present invention have made earnest studies on low voltage driving and high brightness of an organic EL device using a polymer light emitting material as a light emitting layer. As a result, as the polymer light emitting material, a solvent-soluble conjugated polymer was used, and an electron transporting compound added thereto was used as the light emitting layer, or between the polymer light emitting layer and the cathode. It has been found that by forming a layer of an electron transporting compound adjacent to the polymer light emitting layer, lower voltage driving and higher brightness can be realized as compared with the case where the polymer light emitting material is used alone.
