An EL element having a color filter formed on an upper electrode thereof enables a decrease in the pixel loss or line defects. In the EL element, a lower transparent electrode, first insulating layer, luminescent layer and upper transparent electrode are laminated on a glass substrate. Further, a color filter is formed on the upper transparent electrode. As the color filter there is used a posi-resist having an average molecular weight in a range of from 100 to 50000 or a nega-resist having a polymerization reaction percentage in a range of from 5% to 70%.

El element having a color filter formed on an upper electrode

An electro-luminescent display apparatus which is capable of displaying two kinds of images is disclosed. The apparatus has a front and a rear electro-luminescent unit therein, and the green light emitted from the front unit directly displays the real image which looks close to a viewer while the orange light emitted from the rear unit is reflected by a reflector disposed at the back of the apparatus and displays a virtual image which looks far from the viewer. In order to reflect the light emitted backward from the front unit and the light emitted forward from the rear unit, reflecting electrodes are provided on the rear surface of the front unit or a reflecting film is disposed in the space between the front and the rear units.

Electro-luminescent display apparatus

An electroluminescent device comprises an insulating substrate having thereon a pair of electrodes comprising a transparent first electrode and a transparent second electrode, with a stack of transparent first insulating layer, a luminescent layer, and a second transparent layer interposed therebetween; provided that a light reflecting plane is formed on the outside of one of the electrode pairs with a transparent insulating substance interposed between, the electrode being disposed opposed to the light outcoupling direction.
