摘要:
When a light-emitting element having an intermediate conductive layer between a plurality of light-emitting layers is formed, the intermediate conductive layer can have transparency; and thus, materials are largely limited and the manufacturing process of an element becomes complicated by a conventional method. A light-emitting element according to the present invention is formed by sequentially stacking a pixel electrode, a first light-emitting layer, an intermediate conductive layer (including an electron injecting layer and a hole-injecting layer, one of which is island-like), a second light-emitting layer and an opposite electrode. Therefore, the present invention can provide a light-emitting element typified by an organic EL element in which a range of choice of materials that can be used as the intermediate conductive layer is broadened extremely, and which can realize a high light-emitting efficiency, a low power consumption and a high reliability, and further a display device using the light-emitting element.

A display device capable of displaying on both screens and switching between vertical and horizontal display, and a driving method thereof. Each pixel comprises a first region including a first light emitting element, and a second region including a second light emitting element. The first region has a bottom emission structure whereas the second region has a top emission structure. The display device comprises a source signal line driver circuit for driving the pixel, a first gate signal line driver circuit having a scan direction perpendicular to that of the source signal line driver circuit, and a second gate signal line driver circuit having a scan direction perpendicular to that of the first gate signal line driver circuit. In a normal display, the first gate signal line driver circuit performs perpendicular scanning, and when switching between vertical and horizontal display, the second gate signal line driver circuit performs perpendicular scanning.

A measure for improving the light emission efficiency of a light emitting element without degrading characteristics of anode materials used in prior art is provided in manufacture of an upward emission type light emitting element. The present invention is characterized in that nitride or carbide of a metal element belonging to one of Group 4, 5, and 6 in the periodic table (hereinafter referred to as metal compound) is used as the material for forming an anode of a light emitting element. The metal compound has a work function equal to or larger than the work function of conventional anode materials. Therefore, injection of holes from the anode can be improved ever more. Also, with regard to conductivity, the metal compound is smaller in resistivity than ITO. It therefore can fulfil the function as a wire and can lower the drive voltage in the light emitting element compared to prior art.

To provide a light-emitting element or a light-emitting device in which power is not consumed wastefully even if a short-circuit failure occurs. The present invention focuses on heat generated due to a short-circuit failure which occurs in a light-emitting element. A fusible alloy which is melted at temperature T2 by heat generated due to the short-circuit failure when the short-circuit failure occurs is used for at least one of a pair of electrodes in a light-emitting element, and a layer containing an organic composition which is melted at temperature T1 is formed on a surface of the electrode opposite to a surface facing the other electrode. The present inventors have reached a structure in which the temperature T2 is lower than temperature T3 at which the light-emitting element is damaged and the temperature T1 is lower than the temperature T2, and this structure can achieve the objects.
