Light emitting device
First Claim
1. A light emitting device comprising:
- a container cut off from the atmosphere;
an organic electroluminescence element in the container; and
a drying agent in the container, wherein the drying agent chemically absorbs moisture, and maintains a solid state after the moisture absorption, and wherein the drying agent comprises a porous body having a porosity of 20% or more.

Abstract
A drying agent enclosed in an organic EL element is sealed with a shape with which particulate contamination becomes less than that of a conventional shape, while still capable of showing a moisture absorption capacity similar to that of a fine powder. A light emitting device, and an electronic device, having long life and having less particulate contamination than in a device manufactured by conventional processes, are provided by using the organic EL element. The drying agent, made from a compound capable of chemically absorbing moisture, is formed as a bulk porous body or a porous film, and is formed along with the organic EL elements within a container cut off from the atmosphere. In addition, the light emitting device and the electronic device are manufactured using the organic EL elements.
