Abstract

An organic light emitting element includes a pair of electrodes at least one of which has visible light transmittance; and an organic EL layer provided between the pair of electrodes. The organic EL layer includes at least an organic light emitting layer that emits light when a voltage is applied between the pair of electrodes. The organic light emitting layer includes an electron transport host material; and at least first and second guest materials. Each of the first and second guest materials has an emission peak in a blue to blue-green color region. The electron transport host material has an ionization potential (IPH) and an electron affinity (AFH), and the first guest material has an ionization potential (IPG1) and an electron affinity (AFG1) that satisfy Expression (1): IPH≦IPG1 and AFH<AFG1 (1). The organic light emitting element has significantly improved efficiency without any influence on driving voltage.
