Abstract

Le problème à résoudre dans le cadre de la présente invention consiste à mettre à disposition un dispositif de conversion de lumière en lumière à couches comportant une électrode intermédiaire insérée entre une unité de réception de lumière et une unité d'émission de lumière et possédant une résolution spatiale élevée. La solution proposée consiste en une électrode intermédiaire qui est disposée entre une unité de réception de lumière formée par un élément d'amplification de photocourant et une unité d'émission de lumière formée par une couche EL organique. L'électrode intermédiaire est isolée électriquement. Il est ainsi possible d'obtenir un dispositif de conversion de lumière en lumière possédant une forte efficacité de conversion de lumière en lumière et une excellente résolution spatiale.
