AI summary

An organic electroluminescent device has a first electrode, a second electrode, which faces the first electrode, a light-emitting layer, which is located between the first electrode and the second electrode, and a hole transport region, which is located between the first electrode and the light-emitting layer. The hole transport region includes a hole injection layer, a first hole transport layer and a second hole transport layer. The organic electroluminescent device is manufactured by a specific combination of a specific arylamine derivative contained in a hole transport region and a dual-host red-light material contained in a light-emitting layer. The manufactured organic electroluminescent device has a high turning-on voltage and also has a relatively low driving voltage. Increasing the turning-on voltage of a red-light device reduces the phenomenon of the color displayed appears reddish caused by crosstalk.
