Organic electroluminescent device comprising ceramic sheet and graphite sheet
An organic electroluminescent device is provided and includes: electrodes containing a back electrode and a transparent electrode; and a light-emitting layer disposed between the electrodes. On a side of the back electrode opposite to the light-emitting layer, a ceramic sheet having a thermal emissivity of 0.8 or more and a thickness of from 50 to 1,000 μm or a graphite sheet having a thermal conductivity of 200 W/m·K or more is provided, or the graphite sheet and the ceramic sheet adjacent thereto are provided.
1. An organic electroluminescent device comprising:
a back electrode;
at least one transparent electrode;
at least one light-emitting layer between the back electrode and the at least one transparent electrode;
a graphite sheet having a thermal conductivity of 200 W/m·K or more, the graphite sheet being disposed on a side of the back electrode opposite to the at least one light-emitting layer and adjacent to the back electrode; and
a ceramic sheet having a thermal emissivity of 0.8 or more and a thickness of from 50 to 1000 μm, the ceramic sheet being disposed adjacent to the graphite sheet;
wherein the content of carbon atoms in said graphite sheet is 98.0% by mass or more.
2. The organic electroluminescent device according to claim 1 , wherein the ceramic sheet comprises:
a substrate; and
a coated film containing at least one of sodium silicate and potassium silicate.
3. The organic electro luminescent device according to claim 1 , wherein the graphite sheet is a highly oriented graphite sheet.
4. The organic electroluminescent device according to claim 1 , wherein the graphite sheet has a thickness of from 50 μm to 5 mm.
5. The organic electroluminescent device according to claim 1 , which comprises a moisture barrier film, the moisture barrier film comprising: a substrate film; at least two inorganic gas barrier layers; and at least one hygroscopic layer between the at least two inorganic gas barrier layers, the at least one hygroscopic layer containing an oxide of an alkaline earth metal.
