LIGHT-EMITTING ELEMENT
First Claim
1. A light-emitting element comprising:
- a first electrode;
a first layer over the first electrode, the first layer containing a first organic compound whose hole-transport property is greater than an electron-transport property;
a light-emitting layer over the first layer, the light-emitting layer containing a phosphorescent compound, the first organic compound, and a second organic compound whose electron-transport property is greater than a hole-transport property;
a second layer over the light-emitting layer, the second layer containing the second organic compound; and
a second electrode over the second layer,wherein the first organic compound and the second organic compound are selected so that an exciplex is formed therebetween.

Abstract
A light-emitting element having extremely high efficiency of approximately 25% is provided. The light-emitting element includes a light-emitting layer which contains a phosphorescent guest, an n-type host, and a p-type host, where the light-emitting layer is interposed between an n-type layer including the n-type host and a p-type layer including the p-type host, and where the n-type host and the p-type host are able to form an exciplex in the light-emitting layer. The light-emitting element exhibits an extremely high emission efficiency (power efficiency of 74.3 lm/W, external quantum efficiency of 24.5%, energy efficiency of 19.3%) at a low driving voltage (2.6 V) at which luminance of 1200 cd/m2 is attainable.
