Abstract
An organic EL element with an emissive layer and a second electrode layer is formed on a device glass substrate in an organic EL display device. The second electrode layer covers the emissive layer. An anti-reflection layer for preventing the reflection of light by the second electrode layer is formed on the device glass substrate except the region where the emissive layer is formed. Since this layer prevents the reflection of light by the second electrode layer, only the light from the emissive layer radiates outwards through the device glass substrate, improving the contrast of the organic EL display device.
