Abstract
A light-emitting element includes an anode electrode and a cathode electrode, and is provided with a first hole transport layer, a second hole transport layer, a light-emitting layer, a first electron transport layer, and a second electron transport layer. At a HOMO level, an energy level difference between the second hole transport layer and the light-emitting layer on the second hole transport layer side is from 0.0 eV to 0.15 eV, and at a LUMO level, an energy level difference between the first electron transport layer and the light-emitting layer on the first electron transport layer side is from 0.0 eV to 0.15 eV. The second electron transport layer is a mixed layer that includes an organic material having electron transport properties and an electron-accepting material and contains the electron-accepting material in an amount greater than 50 mass %.
