Abstract
Objects of the present invention are to provide: a light-emitting element having a long lifetime and good emission efficiency and drive voltage. One embodiment of the invention is a light-emitting element including, between an anode and a cathode, at least a stack structure in which a first layer, a second layer, and a light-emitting layer are provided in order from the anode side. The first layer includes a first organic compound and an electron-accepting compound. The second layer includes a second organic compound having a HOMO level differing from the HOMO level of the first organic compound by from −0.2 eV to +0.2 eV. The light-emitting layer includes a third organic compound having a HOMO level differing from the HOMO level of the second organic compound by from −0.2 eV to +0.2 eV and a light-emitting substance having a hole-trapping property with respect to the third organic compound.
Claims (36)

wherein the first organic compound is an electron-accepting compound,
wherein the second organic compound differs from the third organic compound, and
wherein the second organic compound, the third organic compound, and the fourth organic compound each separately comprises a skeleton of at least any one of carbazole, dibenzofuran, dibenzothiophene, and anthracene.
7 . The light-emitting device according to claim 6 , wherein the fourth organic compound comprises an anthracene skeleton.
8 . The light-emitting device according to claim 6 , wherein the light-emitting substance is an aromatic amine compound.
9 . The light-emitting device according to claim 6 , wherein the third layer is in contact with the second layer and the light-emitting layer.
10 . An electronic device comprising a display portion having the light-emitting device according to claim 6 .
