Abstract

A white light emitting organic electroluminescent device and organic electroluminescent display having the same are provided. The organic electroluminescent device includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and an emission layer interposed between the first and second electrodes and having a fluorescence layer and a phosphorescence layer. Thereby, it is possible to obtain the white light emitting organic electroluminescent device having luminance yield improved.
