Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An organic EL device comprising: an organic EL element; a first transistor that controls a drive current of the organic EL element in accordance with a brightness adjustment voltage; and a temperature correction circuit that corrects the brightness adjustment voltage in accordance with a temperature; wherein the temperature correction circuit includes: a second transistor that has a same temperature characteristic as the first transistor; a resistor element that is connected to the second transistor; and an operational amplifier that controls the second transistor such that a predetermined reference voltage and a voltage across the resistor element become equal to each other; wherein the temperature correction circuit corrects the brightness adjustment voltage in accordance with an output from the operational amplifier.
