Provided are an organic electroluminescence device capable of enhancing
reflectance of an anode, thereby resulting in improved light-emitting
efficiency and a method of manufacturing the same. An anode (12), a thin
film layer for hole injection (13), an insulating layer (14), an organic
layer (15) including a luminescent layer (15C) and a cathode (16)
including a semi-transparent electrode (16A) are laminated in order on a
substrate (11). The anode (12) comprises silver which is a metal with
high reflectance or an alloy including silver, and the thin film layer
for hole injection (13) comprises chromium oxide or the like. Light
generated in the luminescent layer (15C) is multiply reflected between
the anode (12) and the semi-transparent electrode (16A) to be emitted
from the cathode (16). As the reflectance of the anode (12) is enhanced,
the light generated in the luminescent layer (15C) can be efficiently
emitted. An alloy comprised in the anode (12) preferably includes silver,
palladium and copper, and a silver content is preferably 50% by mass or
over.
