Abstract: The invention relates to a layer assembly for a light-emitting component, in particular a phosphorescent organic light-emitting diode, having a hole-injecting contact and an electron-injecting contact which are each connected to a light-emitting region, wherein, in the light-emitting region, one light-emitting layer is made up of a material (M1) and another light-emitting layer is made up of another material (M2), where the material (M1) is ambipolar and preferentially transports holes and the other material (M2) is ambipolar and preferentially transports electrons; a heterotransition is formed by the material (M1) and the other material (M2) in the light-emitting region; an interface between the material (M1) and the other material (M2) is of the staggered type II; the material (M1) and the other material (M2) each contain an appropriate addition of one or more triplet emitter dopants; and an energy barrier for transfer of holes from the material (M1) into the other material (M2) and an energy barrer for tra
