Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An object is to provide a light-emitting element which includes an exciplex being used as an energy donor capable of efficiently transferring energy to a substance exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence. The exciplex comprises two kinds of substances and its singlet and triplet excited states are close to each other. Thus, by making light emission of the exciplex overlap with an absorption band on the longest wavelength side which corresponds to absorption by the substance exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence, i.e., an energy acceptor, in a singlet excited state, it becomes possible to achieve efficient energy transfer from a singlet excited state of the exciplex to a singlet excited state of the substance exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence, and it also becomes possible to achieve efficient energy transfer from a triplet excited state of the exciplex to a triplet excited state of the substance exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A light-emitting device comprising: a pair of electrodes; and a light-emitting layer between the pair of electrodes, the light-emitting layer comprising a first organic compound, a second organic compound, and a light-emitting substance which exhibits thermally activated delayed fluorescence, wherein an emission of an exciplex of the first organic compound and the second organic compound overlaps with an absorption band of the light-emitting substance.…
