Abstract:
An organic electroluminescence device, comprising:a surface layer; a transparent substrate formed on the surface layer; a transparent electrode formed on the transparent substrate; a light emitting layer, formed on the transparent electrode, the light emitting layer enabling injection of positive and negative electrical charges therein; and an opposing electrode formed with respect to the light emitting layer so that the light emitting layer is arranged between the transparent electrode and the opposing electrode; wherein the light emitting layer contains a light emitting substance for emitting light anisotropically, the light emitting substance having transition dipole moments attributable to a molecular skeleton thereof, and the transition dipole moments being oriented within an angular range from 0 degree to 70 degrees with respect to a direction normal to a surface layer side surface of the light emitting layer.
