An EL device that emits white light by using a mixture of a material (for example, ZnS: CaCl, ZnS: CuMn, etc.) and a rhodamine-based fluorescent dye as a light-emitting layer has been proposed. According to these proposals, EL
Since the material and the fluorescent dye are mixed, there is a problem that the fluorescent material generating the converted light cannot be easily exchanged. In addition, since blue-green EL emission as excitation light is always mixed, the color becomes white, which is unsuitable as a color conversion element. Also,

要があるなどの問題があった。JP-A-60-220597 discloses an electroluminescent phosphor (for example, ZnS: CaCl-based inorganic EL material) which emits light in the range of a peak wavelength of 460 to 520 mm when an AC electric field is applied, and a peak wavelength of 590.
A combination using a wavelength conversion phosphor (specifically, a coumarin or rhodamine compound) which emits light in a range of up to 610 mm has been proposed. In this proposal, there are three types: a mixture of the two to form a single light-emitting layer, a layer of both layers interposed between the positive and negative electrodes, or a layer of a wavelength converter outside the EL device configuration. Mention the type. But,
In this technique, an alternating-current electric field application type inorganic material is used as the EL element, and the emission color cannot be changed in various ways because the wavelength range is limited. Further, according to European Patent Publication 0281381, an organic EL material such as 8-hydroxyquinoline is used as a host material,
In this configuration, a wavelength conversion fluorescent material such as a coumarin compound is used as a guest material, and a light emitting layer formed from both is laminated on the hole injection layer. By emitting a small amount (about 1 mol% or less) of a fluorescent material into a light emitting layer made of an organic EL material, high-luminance light emission from red to green is obtained. In the present invention, the wavelength conversion mechanism does not mean that the guest simply absorbs light emitted from the host and emits light, but is the result of energy transfer from the host material to the guest material (J. Appl. Phys. 65.3610 (1989)). . According to this mechanism, a high luminous efficiency is certainly obtained, but the luminescent wavelength obtained is limited to a long wavelength light from red to green because the luminescent wavelength of the host material is green. Since a very small amount of the guest material must be doped into the host material, it is difficult to prepare the light emitting layer, and it is difficult to exchange the guest material, so that the conversion color cannot be easily changed. In addition, there is a problem that the host and the guest need to be in close contact with each other (the guest is dispersed in the host) because energy transfer is used.

る。In Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 57-51781 (Japanese Patent Publication No. 64-7635), an organic EL device has two luminous bodies having two luminous bands, and the second luminous body is radiated from the first luminous body. Devices capable of changing the wavelength of light have been proposed.

ことが不可能である等の問題があった。According to the specifically disclosed example, as the first luminous body, a polystyrene dispersed film of tetraphenylbutadiene,
As the second luminous body, a vapor-deposited film of a perylene-based compound is used. The first light-emitting body alone emits blue light with a peak wavelength of 467 mm, but by adding a second light-emitting body, the light-emitting wavelength is shifted to near-infrared light with a peak of 810 mm. However, the converted light is not visible light, and the second luminous body emits light due to energy transfer in the excited state from the first luminous body. Therefore, the thickness of the first and second luminous bodies is reduced.
It is necessary to make the second luminous body closely contacted by making it as thin as about 1000 mm. Further, there is a problem that it is impossible to change the emission color by replacing the fluorescent material part.

るものと考えられる。Further, the present inventor, in the above-mentioned organic EL element produced by doping a fluorescent material in the light emitting layer or by closely attaching the fluorescent layer, unlike the case of the inorganic EL element, the hole in the organic EL material portion and It has been found that there is a problem that the emission of light due to recombination with electrons is inhibited by the fluorescent material, and as a result, the emission efficiency is reduced. That is, in general, in the case of an inorganic EL element, the fluorescent material is not an electric current injection type but an AC voltage drive type, so that no charge is transferred between the fluorescent material and the light emitting material. There is no effect on the luminous efficiency depending on the location of the phosphor, but on the other hand, in the organic EL device, since the energy gap of the phosphor is selected to be smaller than that of the luminescent material, the fluorescent material uses holes and electrons. Act as a trap to capture at least one of
This phenomenon is considered to be a cause peculiar to the EL element, which causes a reduction in luminous efficiency.

As a result, they have found that the above object can be achieved by combining an organic EL material and a wavelength conversion fluorescent material. The present invention has been completed based on such findings.

In the present invention, since an organic EL element capable of emitting light in a short wavelength range from blue to blue-green is used as an excitation light source, unlike conventional inorganic EL elements (emission of longer wavelength than blue-green), there is a wider range of choices of fluorescent materials for wavelength conversion. Thus, more wavelength converted light can be obtained.

That is, first, an electrode is formed on a substrate by vapor deposition or sputtering. At this time, the thickness of the film-like electrode is generally 10 nm to 1 μm, and particularly preferably 200 nm or less, in order to increase the transmittance of light emission. Next, a light emitting material is formed in a thin film on the electrode to form a light emitting layer.
The light-emitting material can be made into a thin film by spin coating, casting, vapor deposition, or the like, but vapor deposition is particularly preferred because a uniform film is easily obtained and pinholes are not generated.
