In an organic light-emitting device which uses, in particular, a light-emitting layer material having a wide band gap, a lowering in emission intensity due to continuous driving is alleviated while maintaining a high emission efficiency. There is provided an organic light-emitting device in which a hole-transporting layer contains a second component in addition to a main component; an energy of a lowest triplet excited state of the second component is less than an energy of a lowest triplet excited state of the main component of the hole-transporting layer; a lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy of the second component is higher than a lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy of the main component of a light-emitting layer; and the second component has an energy gap of 2.7 eV or more.
