基板2の平均厚さは、デジタルマルチメーター、ノギスにより測定できる。
図1に示す陽極3は、基板2上に直接接触して形成されているが、図2に示すような逆構造の有機電界発光素子の場合は、基板2上に直接接触して形成されていなくてもよい。

本発明のフェナントロリン化合物を含む塗料組成物を塗布する方法、もしくは、真空蒸着法を用いることで本発明のフェナントロリン化合物を含む有機薄膜らなる電子注入層8が得られる。また、電子注入層8の平均厚さが100nm以下である場合、電子注入層8を設けることによる有機電界発光素子1の駆動電圧の上昇を十分に抑制できる。
なお、上記本発明のフェナントロリン化合物と第2材料とを含む膜を電子注入層8とする場合、以下に示すいずれの構成であってもよい。

酸化物層10の平均厚さは、触針式段差計、分光エリプソメトリーにより測定できる。
図1及び図2に示す有機電界発光素子1は、必要に応じて、封止されていてもよい。
例えば、図1及び図2に示す有機電界発光素子1は、有機電界発光素子1を収容する凹状の空間を有する封止容器(不図示)と、封止容器の縁部と基板2とを接着する接着剤とによって封止されていてもよい。また、封止容器に有機電界発光素子1を収容し、紫外線(UV)硬化樹脂等からなるシール材を充填することにより封止してもよい。
次に、本発明の有機電界発光素子の製造方法の一例として、図1に示す有機電界発光素子1の製造方法を説明する。
図1に示す有機電界発光素子1を製造するには、まず、基板2上に陽極3を形成する。
陽極3は、スパッタ法、真空蒸着法、ゾルゲル法、スプレー熱分解(SPD)法、原子層堆積(ALD)法、気相成膜法、液相成膜法等により形成することができる。陽極3の形成には、金属箔を接合する方法を用いてもよい。
次に、陽極3上に正孔注入層4を形成する。
正孔注入層4は、上述した有機薄膜の製造方法により形成できる。
次に、正孔注入層4上に、正孔輸送層5と、発光層6と、電子輸送層7と、電子注入層8と、をこの順で形成する。
具体的には、正孔輸送層5、発光層6、電子輸送層7、電子注入層8の各層を形成する方法として、正孔輸送層5、発光層6、電子輸送層7、電子注入層8となる有機化合物を含む有機化合物溶液を塗布する塗布法、真空蒸着法、ESDUS(Evaporative Spray Deposition from Ultra-dilute Solution)法等が挙げられる。
陰極9は、例えば、陽極3と同様にして形成できる。
以上の工程により、図1に示す有機電界発光素子1が得られる。
図1に示す有機電界発光素子1を封止する場合には、有機電界発光素子の封止に用いられる通常の方法を使用して封止できる。
本発明の有機電界発光素子は、前記実施形態において説明した有機電界発光素子に限定されるものではない。
具体的には、前記実施形態においては、有機薄膜が電子注入層として機能する場合を例に挙げて説明したが、本発明の有機電界発光素子は、陰極と発光層との間に有機薄膜を有していればよい。従って、有機薄膜は、電子注入層に限定されるものではなく、電子注入層と電子輸送層とを兼ねる層として設けられていてもよいし、電子輸送層として設けられていてもよい。
また、陽極3、正孔注入層4、正孔輸送層5、発光層6、電子輸送層7、電子注入層8、陰極9の各層は、1層で形成されているものであってもよいし、2層以上からなるものであってもよい。
本発明の有機電界発光素子は、発光層等の材料を適宜選択することによって発光色を変化させることができるし、カラーフィルター等を併用して所望の発光色を得ることもできる。そのため、表示装置の発光部位や照明装置として好適に用いることができる。
また、本発明の照明装置は、生産性に優れ、駆動電圧が低い本発明の有機電界発光素子を具える。このため、照明装置として好ましいものである。
本発明は、前記実施形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の有機薄膜は、例えば、有機薄膜太陽電池、薄膜トランジスタ等のデバイスに用いることができる。
本発明の有機薄膜太陽電池は、本発明の有機薄膜を含む。例えば、有機薄膜を有機薄膜太陽電池の電子注入層に用いた場合、本発明のフェナントロリン化合物と第2材料の間で水素結合を形成することにより、マイナス電荷が生じるため、電子輸送の速度が速く、高い発電効率が得られる。従って、有機薄膜太陽電池として好ましいものである。
また、電極上に該有機薄膜を形成した場合、接触抵抗の低減が期待できる。
