Display elements and display devices

Abstract

The present invention improves display image quality in a display element in which the optical axis of emitted light is inclined. A display element having: a light-emitting unit (109); and a pixel array unit (20) in which a plurality of pixels (200) are positioned, each of of the plurality of pixels (200) being provided with a plurality of auxiliary pixels (100) having color filters (110) that transmit emitted light having a prescribed wavelength from within the light emitted from the light-emitting unit (109). Each of the plurality of pixels (200) is provided with a plurality of auxiliary pixels (100) having color filters (110) that correspond to mutually different wavelengths. The pixel array unit (20) is positioned such that the color filters (110) are offset relative to the center of the host light-emitting unit (109), and is provided with at least one pixel (200) for which the positioning of the color filters (110) is different for each of the plurality of auxiliary pixels (100).
