Abstract

An organic electroluminescent device, a display panel, and a display apparatus. The organic electroluminescent device comprises: an anode ( 301 ) and a cathode ( 302 ) arranged opposite to each other, an organic electroluminescent layer ( 303 ) located between the anode ( 301 ) and the cathode ( 302 ), and an electron blocking layer ( 304 ) located between the anode ( 301 ) and the organic electroluminescent layer ( 303 ); the organic electroluminescent layer ( 303 ) comprises: a first sub luminescent layer ( 3031 ), and a second sub luminescent layer ( 3032 ) located between the cathode ( 302 ) and the first sub luminescent layer ( 3031 ). The first sub luminescent layer ( 3031 ) is composed of a luminescent host material (Host), a luminescent object material (Dopant), and a hole trapping material (Trap). The second sub luminescent layer ( 3032 ) is composed of the luminescent host material (Host) and the luminescent object material (Dopant).
