Therefore, the present invention more specifically relates to the The technical field of one embodiment of the present invention is a semiconductor device, a display device, a liquid crystal display device, a light-emitting device, a lighting device, a Lighting device, power storage device, storage device, imaging device, driving method thereof, or manufacturing method thereof can be cited as an example. [Background technology]

[0002] Electroluminescence (EL) using organic compounds Light-emitting devices (organic EL elements) that utilize these luminescence are being put to practical use. The basic structure of the device is a pair of electrodes sandwiching an organic compound layer (EL layer) containing a light-emitting material. When a voltage is applied to this element, carriers are injected and the recombination of these carriers occurs. By utilizing the energy, light can be emitted from the light-emitting material.

[0003] These light-emitting devices are self-luminous, so they have higher visibility than LCD displays. The light-emitting device is suitable for use as a pixel in a display. Another major advantage of the LCD is that it does not require a backlight and can be made thin and lightweight. Another feature is its extremely fast response time.

[0004] In addition, these light-emitting devices can be fabricated with a continuous two-dimensional light-emitting layer. This is a point light source, such as an incandescent bulb or LED, and This is a feature that is difficult to obtain with linear light sources such as fluorescent lamps, so it is used as a surface light source that can be applied to lighting, etc. It is also highly useful as a tool.

[0005] Displays and lighting devices using such light-emitting devices are suitable for use in a variety of electronic devices. However, research and development is being conducted to find light-emitting devices with better efficiency and life span. There are.

[0006] The properties of light-emitting devices have improved dramatically, but many other properties, including efficiency and durability, remain. It must be said that the technology is still insufficient to meet the high demands of EL. To solve the problem of burn-in, which is still cited as a problem, it is necessary to reduce the decrease in efficiency due to deterioration. The smaller the bottom, the better.

[0007] Deterioration is largely dependent on the luminescent center material and its surrounding materials, so it is difficult to determine good characteristics. The development of host materials with such properties has been actively pursued. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0088] When a fluorescent substance is used as the light-emitting material, the host material is a compound having an anthracene skeleton. A material having an anthracene skeleton is preferably used as a host material for a fluorescent material. When used in this way, it is possible to realize a light-emitting layer having good luminous efficiency and durability.

When the benzocarbazole skeleton is included, the HOMO is shallower than that of carbazole by about 0.1 eV. This is particularly preferable since the host material is dibenzocarbazoline. When a carbazole skeleton is included, the HOMO is shallower than that of carbazole by about 0.1 eV, and holes can enter. This is preferable because it makes it easier to attach the film, has excellent hole transport properties, and has high heat resistance. Further, preferred host materials include those having a 9,10-diphenylanthracene skeleton and Carbazole skeleton (or benzocarbazole skeleton or dibenzocarbazole skeleton) From the viewpoint of the hole injection and transport properties mentioned above, it is desirable to use a carbazole skeleton.

It is a good choice.

[0089] Note that the light-emitting device of one embodiment of the present invention is particularly suitable for a light-emitting device that emits blue fluorescent light. It is preferable to use

[0090] The host material may be a mixture of a plurality of substances. When used, a material having an electron transporting property and a material having a hole transporting property may be mixed. It is preferable to mix a material having an electron transport property with a material having a hole transport property. Therefore, the transport property of the light-emitting layer 113 can be easily adjusted, and the recombination region can be easily controlled. The ratio of the content of the material having hole transport properties to the content of the material having electron transport properties is The ratio of the material having electron transport properties to the material having electron transport properties may be 1:9 to 9:1.

[0091] Furthermore, these mixed materials may form an exciplex. The exciplex is formed to emit light that overlaps with the wavelength of the lowest energy absorption band of By selecting such a combination, energy transfer becomes smooth and light emission can be obtained efficiently. In addition, the use of this configuration is also preferable because the driving voltage is reduced.

[0092] The electron transport layer 114 is a layer containing a substance having an electron transport property. Examples of the electron-transporting material include those listed as the materials having an electron-transporting property that can be used as the host material. can be used.

[0093] Between the electron transport layer 114 and the second electrode 102, a lithium fluoride layer was formed as an electron injection layer 115. Lithium (LiF), 8-hydroxyquinolinato-lithium (abbreviated as Liq), Cesium fluoride Alkali metal or alkaline earth metals such as (CsF), calcium fluoride (CaF2), etc. The electron injection layer 115 may be a layer containing a metal or a compound thereof. The layer is made of a material containing an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal or a compound thereof. As the electride, for example, calcium carbonate may be used. Examples include a material in which a high concentration of electrons is added to a mixed oxide of silicon and aluminum.

[0094] Moreover, a charge generation layer 116 may be provided instead of the electron injection layer 115 (FIG. 1B). By applying a potential to the layer 116, holes are introduced to the layer in contact with the cathode side of the layer, and electrons are introduced to the layer in contact with the anode side of the layer. The charge generation layer 116 is a layer that can inject electrons into the adjacent layer. Both layers include a P-type layer 117. The P-type layer 117 constitutes the hole injection layer 111 described above. It is preferable to form the P-type layer 117 using the composite material mentioned above as a material that can be used. The composite material is a film containing the above-mentioned acceptor material and a hole transport material. By applying a potential to the P-type layer 117, an electron transport Electrons are injected into layer 114 and holes are injected into the second electrode 102, which is the cathode, and the light-emitting device operates. do.

[0095] The charge generation layer 116 includes an electron relay layer 118 and an electron injection buffer layer 119 in addition to the P-type layer 117. Preferably, one or both of layers 119 are provided.

[0096] The electron relay layer 118 contains at least a substance having electron transport properties, and the electron injection buffer layer 1 The electrons are transferred smoothly by preventing the interaction between the P-type layer 117 and the P-type layer 119. The LUMO level of the substance having electron transport properties contained in the relay layer 118 is The LUMO level of the acceptor material in the electron transport layer 114 and the charge generation layer 116 It is preferable that the LUMO level of the electron relay layer 11 is between the LUMO level of the material contained in the adjacent layer. Specific energy levels of the LUMO level in the electron transporting materials used in 8 is set to -5.0 eV or more, preferably -5.0 eV or more and -3.0 eV or less. The electron-transporting material used in the electron relay layer 118 is a phthalocyanine-based material. It is preferred to use materials or metal complexes having metal-oxygen bonds and aromatic ligands.

[0097] The electron injection buffer layer 119 contains an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, a rare earth metal, and These compounds (alkali metal compounds (oxides such as lithium oxide, halides, lithium carbonate) Alkaline earth metal compounds (including carbonates such as titanium and cesium carbonate), alkaline earth metal compounds (oxides, halogens compounds of rare earth metals (including oxides, halides, carbonates) or compounds of rare earth metals (including oxides, halides, carbonates) It is possible to use a material with high electron injection properties, such as SiO 2 .

[0098] The electron injection buffer layer 119 is formed by containing a substance having an electron transporting property and a donor substance. When the donor material is an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, or a rare earth metal, and their compounds (alkali metal compounds (oxides such as lithium oxide, halides , including carbonates such as lithium carbonate and cesium carbonate), alkaline earth metal compounds (oxides, compounds of rare earth metals (including oxides, halides, carbonates) In addition to tetrathianaphthacene (abbreviated as TTN), nickelocene, decamethicone, An organic compound such as nickelocene can also be used. The electron transport layer 114 may be formed using the same material as that used for forming the electron transport layer 114 described above. This can be done.

[0099] The material forming the second electrode 102 is preferably one having a small work function (specifically, 3.8 eV or less). Bottom) Metals, alloys, electrically conductive compounds, and mixtures thereof can be used. Specific examples of such cathode materials include alkali metals such as lithium (Li) and cesium (Cs). Lithium metals, as well as magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), etc. Elements belonging to Group 1 or 2 of the Periodic Table of Elements, and alloys containing these elements (MgAg, Rare earth metals such as AlLi), europium (Eu), ytterbium (Yb) and the like, However, when the second electrode 102 and the electron transport layer are connected to each other, By providing an electron injection layer, it is possible to use Al, Ag, ITO, silicon, etc., regardless of the magnitude of the work function. Various conductive materials such as indium oxide-tin oxide containing silicon oxide or silicon oxide are used as the second It can be used as the electrode 102. These conductive materials can be applied by dry methods such as vacuum deposition and sputtering, inkjet printing, It is possible to form the film using a spin coating method, etc. Also, it is possible to form the film using a wet sol-gel method. Alternatively, the metal layer may be formed by a wet method using a paste of a metal material.

[0100] The EL layer 103 can be formed by various methods, including dry and wet methods. For example, vacuum deposition, gravure printing, offset printing, screen printing, etc. A printing method, an ink jet method, a spin coating method, or the like may also be used.

[0101] Furthermore, the above-mentioned electrodes or layers may be formed using different film formation methods.

[0102] The structure of the layer provided between the first electrode 101 and the second electrode 102 is the same as that described above. However, it is not limited to the above. The first electrode 101 and the second electrode 102 are arranged so as to suppress quenching caused by the A preferred configuration is one in which a light-emitting region where holes and electrons recombine is provided at a location away from O2.

[0103] Furthermore, recombination in the hole transport layer or electron transport layer in contact with the light-emitting layer 113, particularly in the light-emitting layer 113 The carrier transport layer close to the region suppresses energy transfer from excitons generated in the light-emitting layer. Therefore, the band gap is determined by the luminescent material that constitutes the luminescent layer or the luminescent material contained in the luminescent layer. It is preferable that the material be made of a substance having a band gap larger than the band gap of the material. I wish.

[0104] Next, we developed a light-emitting device (a stacked element, a tandem element) that has a structure in which multiple light-emitting units are stacked. An embodiment of the light-emitting device (also referred to as a "diode") will be described with reference to FIG. 1C. A light-emitting device has multiple light-emitting units between the cathode and the cathode. , has a configuration similar to that of the EL layer 103 shown in FIGS. 1A1, 1A2, and 1B. That is, the light-emitting device shown in FIG. 1C is a light-emitting device having a plurality of light-emitting units. The light-emitting devices shown in FIGS. 1A1, 1A2 and 1B are light-emitting devices having one light-emitting unit. It can be said to be an optical device.

[0105] In FIG. 1C, a first light-emitting unit 511 and a second light-emitting unit 512 are disposed between the anode 501 and the cathode 502. The first light-emitting unit 511 and the second light-emitting unit 512 are stacked. A charge generating layer 513 is provided between the anode 501 and the cathode 502. These correspond to the first electrode 101 and the second electrode 102 in FIG. 1A1 and the like, and The same as described above can be applied. The second light-emitting units 512 may be of the same or different configuration.

[0106] When a voltage is applied between the anode 501 and the cathode 502, the charge generating layer 513 generates a light emitting The electron-injecting unit has the function of injecting electrons into one light-emitting unit and holes into the other light-emitting unit. At 1C, when a voltage is applied so that the anode potential is higher than the cathode potential, The charge generation layer 513 injects electrons into the first light-emitting unit 511 and Any material capable of injecting holes into 12 may be used.

[0107] The charge generation layer 513 is formed to have the same structure as the charge generation layer 116 described in FIG. 1B. The composite material of an organic compound and a metal oxide has excellent carrier injection and carrier transport properties. Because of its excellent properties, it can be driven at low voltage and low current. When the anode side surface of the charge generating layer 513 is in contact with the charge generating layer 513, the charge generating layer 513 is in contact with the light emitting unit Since the EL layer can also function as a hole injection layer, the EL unit can be formed without providing a hole injection layer. good.

[0108] In addition, when the electron injection buffer layer 119 is provided in the charge generation layer 513, the electron injection buffer Since the electron injection layer 119 plays the role of an electron injection layer in the light-emitting unit on the anode side, the light-emitting layer The unit does not necessarily need to have an electron injection layer.

[0109] Although the light-emitting device having two light-emitting units is described in FIG. 1C, a light-emitting device having three or more light-emitting units may be used. The present invention can be similarly applied to a light-emitting device in which light-emitting units are stacked. As in the light-emitting device according to the embodiment, a plurality of light-emitting units are formed between a pair of electrodes to generate electric charges. By separating the layers with the layer 513, high brightness light emission is possible while keeping the current density low. Furthermore, a light-emitting device that can be driven at a low voltage and consumes less power can be realized. This can be achieved.

[0110] In addition, by making the light color of each light-emitting unit different, the light-emitting device as a whole can be For example, a light-emitting device having two light-emitting units can be used to obtain light of a desired color. In this device, the first light-emitting unit emits red and green light, and the second light-emitting unit emits blue light. By obtaining a color, it is possible to obtain a light-emitting device that emits white light as a whole. In the case of a three-layer structure, the first light-emitting unit emits blue light, and the second light-emitting unit emits blue light. White light can be obtained by using a first light-emitting unit to obtain red and green light, and a third light-emitting unit to obtain blue light. .

[0111] In addition, the EL layer 103, the first light-emitting unit 511, the second light-emitting unit 512, and Each layer such as the charge generating layer and the electrodes can be formed by, for example, a vapor deposition method (including a vacuum deposition method), a droplet discharge method (including an ink jet method), or the like. It can be formed by using methods such as ink jet printing, coating, and gravure printing. They can be used in low molecular weight materials, medium molecular weight materials (including oligomers and dendrimers), or polymeric material.

[0112] (Embodiment 3) In this embodiment, light emission using the light-emitting device described in the first and second embodiments is The device will now be described.

[0113] In this embodiment, a light-emitting device described in Embodiments 1 and 2 is used to manufacture a The light-emitting device will be described with reference to FIG. 2. FIG. 2A is a top view showing the light-emitting device. 2B is a cross-sectional view taken along lines AB and CD in FIG. 2A. The drive circuit (source line drive circuit) shown by the dotted line controls the light emission of the device. 601, a pixel portion 602, and a driving circuit portion (gate line driving circuit) 603. 604 is a sealing substrate, 605 is a sealing material, and the inside surrounded by the sealing material 605 is a space 60 It's now 7.

[0114] The lead wiring 608 is connected to the source line driver circuit 601 and the gate line driver circuit 603. The wiring is for transmitting signals, and the FPC (flexible printed circuit board) is the external input terminal. Video signal, clock signal, start signal, reset signal, etc. from the input circuit 609 Although only the FPC is shown here, this FPC has a printed wiring board. The light emitting device in this specification may be a light emitting device. This includes not only the device itself but also the state in which an FPC or PWB is attached to it. do.

[0115] Next, the cross-sectional structure will be described with reference to FIG. A pixel portion is formed, and here, a source line driver circuit 601 which is a driver circuit portion and a pixel One pixel in element portion 602 is shown.

[0116] The element substrate 610 may be a substrate made of glass, quartz, organic resin, metal, alloy, semiconductor, or the like. FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastics), PVF (Polyvinyl It is made using a plastic substrate made of, for example, fluoride, polyester, or acrylic. That's fine.

[0117] The structure of the transistors used in the pixels and driver circuits is not particularly limited. The transistor may be a top-type transistor or a staggered type transistor. The transistor may be a gate type transistor or a bottom gate type transistor. The semiconductor material is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include silicon, germanium, silicon carbide, and nitride. Gallium or the like can be used. Alternatively, in-type metal oxides such as In-Ga-Zn-based metal oxides can be used. An oxide semiconductor containing at least one of tungsten, gallium, and zinc may be used.

[0118] The crystallinity of the semiconductor material used in the transistor is not particularly limited. A semiconductor having crystallinity (microcrystalline semiconductor, polycrystalline semiconductor, single crystal semiconductor, or a semiconductor having a partially crystalline region) When a semiconductor having crystallinity is used, the transistor This is preferable because it can suppress deterioration of the star characteristics.

[0119] Here, in addition to the transistors provided in the pixels and the driver circuits, It is preferable to use an oxide semiconductor for a semiconductor device such as a transistor. In particular, it is preferable to use an oxide semiconductor having a wider band gap than silicon. By using an oxide semiconductor with a wider band gap than silicon, the off-state of the transistor can be This can reduce the current in the

[0120] The oxide semiconductor preferably contains at least indium (In) or zinc (Zn). In addition, In-M-Zn oxides (where M is Al, Ti, Ga, Ge, Y, Zr, Sn, It is preferable that the oxide semiconductor contains an oxide represented by the formula (metal such as La, Ce or Hf). More preferable.

[0121] Here, an oxide semiconductor that can be used in one embodiment of the present invention will be described below. .

[0122] Oxide semiconductors are divided into single-crystal oxide semiconductors and other non-single-crystal oxide semiconductors. As a non-single-crystal oxide semiconductor, for example, CAAC-OS (c-axis alignable oxide semiconductor) gned crystalline oxide semiconductor), polycrystalline nc-OS (nano crystalline oxide semiconductor) semiconductor), pseudo-amorphous oxide semiconductor (a-like OS) amorphous-like oxide semiconductor), and amorphous oxide semiconductor Conductors, etc.

[0123] CAAC-OS has a c-axis orientation and multiple nanocrystals are connected in the ab-plane direction. The crystal structure has distortion. The distortion is the area where multiple nanocrystals are connected. In the region, the lattice arrangement is changed between a region with a uniform lattice arrangement and another region with a uniform lattice arrangement. Indicates the point where the direction is changing.

[0124] Nanocrystals are basically hexagonal, but they are not limited to regular hexagonal shapes and may be non-regular hexagonal. The distortion may also have lattice arrangements such as pentagons and heptagons. In CAAC-OS, clear grain boundaries (grain boundaries) are observed even near the strain. It is difficult to confirm the presence of grains due to distortion of the lattice arrangement. This is because the CAAC-OS has a crystalline structure in the ab-plane direction. The oxygen atoms are not densely packed, and the bond distance between atoms is shortened by the substitution of metal elements. This is because distortion can be tolerated by changing the frequency.

[0125] In addition, the CAAC-OS has a layer containing indium and oxygen (hereinafter referred to as an In layer) and an element A layered crystal structure in which layers containing M, zinc, and oxygen (hereinafter referred to as (M, Zn) layers) are stacked. It is noted that indium and element M tend to have a layered structure. It is possible, and when the element M in the (M,Zn) layer is replaced with indium, (In,M,Zn) Also, when indium in the In layer is replaced with element M, (In,M ) layer.

[0126] CAAC-OS is an oxide semiconductor with high crystallinity. Since it is difficult to identify grain boundaries, the decrease in electron mobility caused by grain boundaries is unlikely to occur. In addition, the crystallinity of oxide semiconductors is degraded by the inclusion of impurities and the generation of defects. Therefore, CAAC-OS should be free from impurities and defects (oxygen vacancies (V O :oxygen Therefore, CAA Oxide semiconductors containing C-OS have stable physical properties. The oxide semiconductor has high heat resistance and high reliability.

[0127] nc-OS is a material that can be used in microscopic areas (e.g., areas between 1 nm and 10 nm, especially areas between 1 nm and 3 nm). The nc-OS has periodic atomic arrangement in the nanometer range (nm or less). There is no regularity in the crystal orientation between the crystals. Therefore, no orientation is observed throughout the film. Therefore, depending on the analysis method, nc-OS may be distinguished from a-like OS or amorphous oxide semiconductor. It may be difficult to distinguish between the two.

[0128] Note that indium, gallium, and zinc are oxide semiconductors. The IGZO nanocrystals mentioned above are stable. In particular, IGZO tends to have difficulty growing crystals in the atmosphere. , small crystals (e.g., crystals of several mm or several cm) are more likely to be formed than large crystals (here, crystals of several mm or several cm). For example, the nanocrystals mentioned above may be structurally more stable.

[0129] The a-like OS is an oxide semiconductor with a structure between the nc-OS and amorphous oxide semiconductor. Conductive. A-like OS has voids or low density regions. The ke-OS has lower crystallinity than the nc-OS and CAAC-OS.

[0130] Oxide semiconductors have a variety of structures, each of which has different characteristics. Oxide semiconductors include amorphous oxide semiconductors, polycrystalline oxide semiconductors, a-like OS, and nc The compound may have two or more of -OS and CAAC-OS.

[0131] In addition to the oxide semiconductors mentioned above, Cloud-Aligned Computing (CAC) osite)-OS may also be used.

[0132] CAC-OS is a material that has a conductive function in some parts and an insulating function in other parts. The material as a whole functions as a semiconductor. When used in the semiconductor layer of The insulating function is the function of preventing the flow of electrons, which act as carriers. The function of switching is achieved by making the insulating function and the switching function ( On / Off function) can be added to CAC-OS. By separating the functions of each, the functions of both can be maximized.

[0133] The CAC-OS also has a conductive region and an insulating region. The insulating region has the above-mentioned insulating function. In some cases, the conductive and insulating regions are separated at the nanoparticle level. The conductive and insulating regions may be unevenly distributed in the material. may be observed as a cloud-like cluster with the periphery blurred.

[0134] In addition, in CAC-OS, the conductive region and the insulating region are each 0.5 nm or more. When the particles are dispersed in the material in a size of 10 nm or less, preferably 0.5 nm to 3 nm, There is a match.

[0135] In addition, the CAC-OS is composed of components having different band gaps. For example, CAC-OS consists of a wide-gap component originating from the insulating region and a conductive component originating from the conductive region. In this configuration, the carrier is When the carriers flow, they mainly flow in the narrow gap component. The component with a gap acts complementary to the component with a wide gap, Carriers flow into the wide-gap component in conjunction with the wide-gap component. When the CAC-OS is used in a channel forming region of a transistor, In the on state, a high current driving force, i.e., a large on-current, and a high field-effect mobility are obtained. It is possible.

[0136] That is, CAC-OS is a matrix composite. , or metal matrix composite It can also be called.

[0137] By using the above-mentioned oxide semiconductor material for the semiconductor layer, fluctuations in electrical characteristics are suppressed and reliability is improved. This makes it possible to realize highly reliable transistors.

[0138] Furthermore, the transistor having the above-described semiconductor layer can be used as a transistor due to its low off-state current. It is possible to retain the charge stored in the capacitor for a long period of time through such a transistor. By applying a transistor to each pixel, the gradation of the image displayed in each display area can be maintained while driving It is also possible to shut down the circuit. As a result, electronic devices with extremely low power consumption can be realized. It can be realized.

[0139] For stabilizing the characteristics of the transistor, it is preferable to provide an underlayer film. Inorganic films such as silicon oxide film, silicon nitride film, silicon oxynitride film, and silicon nitride oxide film The insulating film can be formed as a single layer or a laminated layer. CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) method (Plasma CVD method) , thermal CVD method, MOCVD (Metal Organic CVD) method, etc.), ALD ( Formed using Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), coating, printing, etc. It should be noted that the undercoat film need not be provided if it is not necessary.

[0140] The FET 623 indicates one of the transistors formed in the driving circuit section 601. The drive circuit is made up of various CMOS circuits, PMOS circuits, or NMOS circuits. In this embodiment, a driver integrated type in which a driving circuit is formed on a substrate is shown. However, this is not necessarily required, and the drive circuit can be formed externally rather than on the substrate. .

[0141] The pixel section 602 includes a switching FET 611, a current control FET 612 and its driver. The pixel is formed by a plurality of pixels including a first electrode 613 electrically connected to the drain. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a pixel unit that combines three or more FETs and a capacitance element may also be used. good.

[0142] An insulator 614 is formed to cover the end of the first electrode 613. It can be formed by using a photosensitive acrylic mold.

[0143] In order to improve the coverage of the EL layer and the like to be formed later, the insulating material 614 is For example, the material of the insulator 614 is When a positive photosensitive acrylic is used, the radius of curvature (0. It is preferable that the insulating material 614 has a curved surface with a thickness of 2 μm to 3 μm. Either a negative photosensitive resin or a positive photosensitive resin can be used.

[0144] An EL layer 616 and a second electrode 617 are formed on the first electrode 613. Here, the material used for the first electrode 613 has a large work function. For example, an ITO film or a silicon-containing indium tin oxide film, Indium oxide film containing up to 20 wt% zinc oxide, titanium nitride film, chromium film, tungsten film In addition to single layer films such as titanium nitride film, Zn film, and Pt film, films mainly composed of titanium nitride film and aluminum and a three-layer structure consisting of a titanium nitride film, a film mainly composed of aluminum, and a titanium nitride film. In addition, when a laminated structure is used, the resistance as a wiring is low and a good overcoat can be obtained. It can be made to have good contact with the electrode and can also function as an anode.

[0145] The EL layer 616 can be formed by a deposition method using a deposition mask, an inkjet method, or a spin coating method.

[0160] In the light emitting device described above, light is taken in toward the substrate 1001 on which the FET is formed. The light emitting device has a bottom emission structure, but the light is taken in from the sealing substrate 1031 side. The light emitting device may have a top emission structure. A cross-sectional view of the light-emitting device is shown in FIG. 4. In this case, a substrate that does not transmit light is used as the substrate 1001.

In the case of an optical device, it is preferable that the anode is a reflective electrode. The EL layer 103 has the same structure as that described in the first and second embodiments, and In addition, the device structure is designed to produce white light emission.

At least one electrode is provided between the reflective electrode and the semi-transparent / semi-reflective electrode. It has an EL layer, and at least has a light-emitting layer that becomes a light-emitting region.

The semi-reflective electrode has a visible light reflectance of 20% to 80%, preferably 40% to 70%. , and its resistivity is 1×10 -2 It is assumed that the film has a resistance of Ωcm or less.

[0165] The light emitted from the light-emitting layer included in the EL layer is reflected by the reflective electrode and the semi-transparent and semi-reflective electrode. The sound is reflected and resonates.

[0166] The light-emitting device is made by changing the thickness of the transparent conductive film, the composite material, the carrier transport material, etc. By doing so, the optical distance between the reflective electrode and the semi-transmissive / semi-reflective electrode can be changed.
