Abstract

A luminescent device (3) for reducing unevenness of brightness. The luminescent device includes a transparent substrate (12), which has a light exit surface (17) and an incident surface (18), and a luminescent element (4), which is formed on the incident surface of the transparent substrate. The luminescent element includes a transparent electrode (14) formed on the incident surface of the transparent substrate, an auxiliary electrode (13) formed on a part of the transparent electrode, and a thin-film layer (15), which is formed on the transparent electrode, for emitting light. The transparentsubstrate includes a projection (17a) formed on the light exit surface.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a light emitting device, more particularly, to a light emitting device including an auxiliary electrode. Background technique [0002] In a display including a light emitting element like an organic electroluminescent element and a transparent electrode, the transparent electrode is mainly composed of, for example, indium tin oxide (ITO) or zinc oxide (ZnO). [0003] The conductivity of the transparent electrode is low. Thus, when a transparent electrode is used, there is a large difference in the resistance of the region near the connection terminal and the resistance of the region far from the connection terminal. This results in a large difference in the value of the current flowing through the region close to the connection terminal and the value of the current flowing through the region far from the connection terminal. The current value affects the light emission luminance of the organic electroluminescence elem...
