Abstract

A novel light-emitting element is provided. A light-emitting element with a long lifetime is provided. A light-emitting element with high emission efficiency is provided. In the light-emitting element, an EL layer includes a hole-injection layer, a first hole-transport layer, a second hole-transport layer, a third hole-transport layer, a light-emitting layer, a first electron-transport layer, and a second electron-transport layer in this order; the hole-injection layer includes an organic acceptor; the LUMO level of the host material is higher than that of the first electron-transport layer; the LUMO level of the second electron-transport layer is higher than that of the first electron-transport layer; the host material is a substance including a condensed aromatic ring skeleton; and the first and second electron-transport layers each include a substance having a heteroaromatic ring skeleton.

Claims (26)

1. A compound comprising:

a naphthalene group substituted with two carbazole groups,

wherein the compound has a hole-transport property, and

wherein the compound is used in a first layer being in contact with a light-emitting layer comprising a first compound comprising an anthracene skeleton.

2. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein the first compound is a host material.

3. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein a HOMO level of the compound is deeper than or equal to a HOMO level of the first compound.

4. The compound according to claim 1 ,

wherein each of the two carbazole groups is a phenylcarbazole skeleton, and

wherein the compound has two phenylcarbazole skeletons.

5. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein the compound does not include amine.

6. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein the compound is represented by the following formula:

7. A light-emitting device comprising:

a hole-transport layer comprising a first compound; and

a light-emitting layer comprising a second compound,

wherein the first compound has a naphthalene group substituted with two carbazole groups,

wherein the second compound has an anthracene skeleton, and

wherein the hole-transport layer is in contact with the light-emitting layer.

8. The light-emitting device according to claim 7 , wherein the second compound is a host material.

9. The light-emitting device according to claim 7 , wherein a HOMO level of the first compound is deeper than or equal to a HOMO level of the second compound.

10. The light-emitting device according to claim 7 ,

wherein each of the two carbazole groups is a phenylcarbazole skeleton, and

wherein the first compound has two phenylcarbazole skeletons.

11. The light-emitting device according to claim 7 , wherein the first compound does not include amine.

12. The light-emitting device according to claim 7 , wherein the first compound is represented by the following formula:

13. An electronic device comprising the light-emitting device according to claim 7 .

14. A lighting device comprising the light-emitting device according to claim 7 .
