Light-emitting element and display device using same

1. A light-emitting element, comprising:

a reflective electrode;

a light-transmitting electrode disposed opposite the reflective electrode;

a light-emitting layer emitting blue light and disposed between the reflective electrode and the light-transmitting electrode; and

a functional layer disposed between the reflective electrode and the light-emitting layer, wherein

given a luminous efficiency E 1 of the light-emitting element with no colour filter, and a luminous efficiency E 2 of the light-emitting element with a colour filter, an optical thickness of the functional layer satisfies:

a first condition requiring an efficiency ratio that is equal to or greater than 0.85, the efficiency ratio being calculated by: taking, as the denominator, a value of the luminous efficiency E 2 when the optical thickness of the functional layer has been adjusted to produce an extreme value of the luminous efficiency E 1 and colour filter characteristics have been adjusted to achieve a target chromaticity; and taking, as the numerator, a value of the luminous efficiency E 2 when the colour filter characteristics have been adjusted to achieve the target chromaticity for a given optical thickness of the functional layer; and

a second condition requiring that, when the colour filter characteristics have been adjusted to achieve the target chromaticity for the given optical thickness of the functional layer, and the optical thickness of the functional layer has been changed while the colour filter characteristics remain stable, a variation in the luminous efficiency E 2 is within ±10%, a variation in chromaticity is within ±0.015, and an optical thickness range satisfying both is at least 20 nm.

2. A display device, comprising:

a light-emitting element emitting blue light;

a light-emitting element emitting green light; and

a light-emitting element emitting red light, wherein

the light-emitting element emitting the blue light is the light-emitting element of claim 1 .
