Abstract:
1. A planar light emitting device comprising: an organic electroluminescent element module unit in which plural organic electroluminescent elements are arranged side by side, each of the organic electroluminescent elements including an anode, a light emitting layer and a cathode that are formed on a first surface side of a first transparent substrate; a second transparent substrate disposed on a light extraction side of the organic electroluminescent element module unit; and a protector designed to, together with the second transparent substrate, enclose the organic electroluminescent element module unit; wherein the organic electroluminescent element includes: an external connection electrode for receiving high potential and an external connection electrode for receiving low potential which serve to supply power to the organic electroluminescent element module are disposed on a first surface side of the second transparent substrate so as to avoid a projection region of the light emitting portion.
