Abstract:
1. An organic electroluminescent device bearing an anode, a hole injection layer, a hole transportation layer, a luminescent layer, an electron transportation layer and a cathode, characterized in that (i) all the materials used in said hole injection layer, said hole transportation layer, said luminescent layer, and said electron transportation layer have a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 120° or higher, and (ii) said luminescent layer comprises a green light-emitting coumarin derivative as dopant and hole-transporting and electron-transporting substances as host; (iii) said coumarin derivative comprising a plurality of coumarin groups bond to an aromatic ring, heterocycle or any combination thereof, and exhibiting a glass transition point of 150° C. or higher or a melting point of 297° C. or higher, and that (iv) said hole injection layer consisting of a copper phthalocyanine is provided between said anode and said hole transportation layer, and (v) the variation in diffraction peak accompanied by heating said organic EL device at ambient temperature in the range of −40 to 120° C. is maintained within ±25% of the diffraction peak before the heating, in terms of values of diffraction peaks as determined by applying x-ray diffraction method to said copper phthalocyanine, wherein said coumarin derivative is a member selected from the group consisting of:
