Abstract:
1. A light emitting device comprising: a supporting substrate, a first electrode disposed on the supporting substrate, an electroluminescent layer disposed on the first electrode and including at least a light emitting layer, a second electrode disposed opposite to the first electrode, with the electroluminescent layer interposed therebetween; a sealing layer disposed on the second electrode; a resin layer disposed on the sealing layer; and light transmitting particles scattered in the resin layer, at least a portion of the light transmitting particles being scattered such that a part of each of the scattered particles is embedded in a surface of the resin layer at the side at which light emitted from the light emitting layer is extracted from the resin layer, wherein the refractive index of the light transmitting particles is higher than the refractive index of the resin layer, the refractive index of the resin layer is lower than the refractive index of the sealing layer, and a portion of the light transmitting particles, that are scattered in areas other than the surface of the resin layer on the side at which light is extracted from the resin layer, is in contact with the sealing layer.
