Abstract

An organic light emitting element includes a transparent electrode, a light emitting layer and a metal electrode layer formed in that order. Further, a metal reflection film is formed on at least a side surface of the light emitting layer through an insulation film.

Claims

1. An organic light emitting element comprising a transparent electrode, a light emitting layer and a metal electrode layer formed in that order, wherein a metal reflection film is formed on at least a side surface of the light emitting layer through an insulation film.

2. An organic light emitting element comprising a transparent electrode, a light emitting layer and a metal electrode layer formed in that order, wherein at least a side surface of the light emitting layer is covered with an insulation film and a metal reflection film.

3. An organic light emitting element comprising a substrate, a translucent electrode, a transparent electrode, a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer and a metal electrode layer formed in that order, wherein a metal reflection film is formed on at least a side surface of the light emitting layer through a metal reflection film.
