LIGHT-EMITTING LAYER AND LIGHT-EMITTING ELEMENT
First Claim
1. An organic light-emitting layer comprising:
- a layer of an n-type organic material;
a layer of a p-type organic material; and
a layer containing an organic light-emitting material molecule the number of molecules in the thickness direction of the layer containing the organic light-emitting material molecules is one to five, andwherein the layer containing the organic light-emitting material molecule is interposed between the layer of the n-type organic material and the layer of the p-type organic material.

Abstract
To provide a highly efficient organic light-emitting element. An extremely thin layer (a monomolecular film or the like) containing an organic light-emitting material such as an iridium complex is provided between a layer of an n-type organic material (an organic material having a high electron-transport property) and a layer of a p-type organic material (an organic material having a high hole-transport property). In a structure described above, in a layer of the organic light-emitting material, electrons are injected from the LUMO of the n-type organic material to the LUMO of the organic light-emitting material, and holes are injected from the HOMO of the p-type organic material to the HOMO of the organic light-emitting material, whereby the organic light-emitting material is brought into an excited state and emits light.
