An ink for an organic light-emitting element includes a first solvent, a second solvent, and a functional material. The first and second solvents have equal or similar boiling points. The first solvent is such that an imitatively formed functional layer formed by replacing the second solvent with the first solvent, in a light-emitting region of an organic light-emitting element, is thicker at both end portions than at a central portion and the top surfaces of the end portions are positioned higher than the top surface of the central portion. The second solvent is such that an imitatively formed functional layer formed by replacing the first solvent with the second solvent, in a light-emitting region of an organic light-emitting element, is thicker at a central portion than at both end portions and the top surface of the central portion is positioned higher than the top surfaces of the end portions.

Abstract:
An apparatus is provided with a plurality of organic light emitting devices, each having an organic light emitting layer that synthesizes two or more colors of light that are complementary to each other thereby producing white light, and a resonant structure by which a resonant wavelength is set to a predetermined wavelength, and outputs the white light via the resonant structure. The apparatus further comprises a plurality of wavelength selection units on a path through which the white light is outputted, each wavelength selection unit transmitting only light of a particular wavelength included in the outputted white light, the predetermined wavelength substantially coinciding with a wavelength corresponding to a primary color whose luminous intensity is, if without the resonant structure, the lowest of three primary colors included in the produced white light to bring it close to white light ideal for an image display light source.

A display capable of preventing an emission layer from deterioration resulting from temperature rise of an electrode also when the same is increased in size and easily connectable with an external current source also when the same is connected with the external current source on a single portion is provided. This display comprises a first electrode formed on a substrate, an emission layer formed on the first electrode, a second electrode formed on the emission layer, a peripheral electrode, arranged to enclose the outer periphery of the second electrode and connected with at least three edges of the outer periphery of the second electrode, having a smaller sheet resistance value than the second electrode, and a current source connection terminal connected to the outer periphery of the peripheral electrode. Thus, current readily flows from the second electrode toward the peripheral electrode, while the current can be dispersedly fed along three or four directions.
