Abstract

Provided is an organic electroluminescent device including an organic layer interposed between a pair of electrodes, the organic layer including a layer formed of a titanium oxide derivative or a mixture layer containing a titanium oxide derivative. The organic electroluminescent device has higher luminescent efficiency, a longer lifetime and a lower operating voltage than a conventional organic electroluminescent device, and can be easily manufactured.
