Organic EL element and method of forming the same
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An organic EL element comprising:
- a plurality of light-emitting units which exhibit organic EL luminescence and at least two different luminous colors and are connected in series; and
a light-emitting surface formed by overlapping partly or wholly light-emitting surfaces of the light-emitting units, wherein the plurality of light-emitting units comprise light-emitting units which exhibit one color and are formed in multiple stages, and a desired mixed color is obtained from the light-emitting surface by combining the different luminous colors.

Abstract
An organic EL element includes a plurality of light-emitting units which exhibit organic EL luminescence and at least two different luminous colors and are connected in series; and a light-emitting surface formed by overlapping partly or wholly light-emitting surfaces of the light-emitting units. The plurality of light-emitting units includes light-emitting units which exhibit one color and are formed in multiple stages. A desired mixed color is obtained from the light-emitting surface by combining the different luminous colors.

4. A method of forming an organic EL element including a plurality of light-emitting units exhibiting organic EL luminescence and at least two different luminous colors, comprising:
-
connecting the plurality of light-emitting units in series; and
overlapping partly or wholly light-emitting surfaces of the light-emitting units to form a light-emitting surface of the organic EL element, wherein the plurality of light-emitting units comprise light-emitting units which exhibit one color and are formed in multiple stages, and a desired mixed color is obtained from the light-emitting surface of the organic EL element by combining the different luminous colors. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7)

8. An organic EL element comprising:
-
a plurality of light-emitting units which are connected in series, exhibit organic EL luminescence and at least two different color and include a first light-emitting unit exhibiting a first luminous color and a second light-emitting unit exhibiting a second luminous color; and
a light-emitting surface formed by overlapping partly or wholly light-emitting surfaces of the light-emitting units, wherein a plurality of first light-emitting units are formed in multiple stages and a desired mixed color is obtained from the light-emitting surface by combining the first and second luminous colors.
