Abstract
There is provided an organic light-emitting apparatus in which the luminance can be improved, and, at the same time, the reflection of ambient light can be reduced by adding a prism member and a light-absorbing member to a spontaneous light-emitting device such as an organic light-emitting device, and which includes: a plurality of organic light-emitting devices each having a pair of electrodes and an organic compound layer formed between the pair of electrodes; a prism member disposed on a light extraction side of the organic light-emitting device, an interface on the light extraction side of the prism member being an interface with air; and a light-absorbing member formed between the plurality of organic light-emitting devices, around the prism member, and on a side portion of a protrusion of the prism member.
