Abstract: An EL element including an EL light-emitting structure including a light-emitting layer on a transparent electrode, and a counter electrode on the light-emitting layer, a translucent substrate, and a light scattering layer between the EL light-emitting structure and the translucent substrate, the light scattering layer having a first surface on a transparent electrode side and a second surface on a side of the translucent substrate. The light scattering layer includes light scattering particles which includes particles that form agglomerates in a portion of the first surface such that the portion of the first surface has a concavo-convex shape. The light scattering particles further include particles positioned in order along the second surface such that the second surface is smoother than the portion of the first surface having the concavo-convex shape.

Abstract: An EL panel including: a light-transmissive substrate; an EL element including a light-emitting medium layer interposed between a cathode and an anode, the EL element being provided on one surface of the light-transmissive substrate; and a protection sheet on the other surface of the light-transmissive substrate of the EL element. The protection sheet has a surface opposite to the light-transmissive substrate, the shape of the surface includes rounded convex shapes and prism shapes. Each of the rounded shapes has an apex that is a center point of a cross-section farthest from a bottom surface where the cross-section is parallel to the bottom surface of the unit convex shape and the area becomes smaller in a direction from the bottom surface of the rounded convex shape to a top portion thereof.

Abstract: A light reuse sheet includes: a reflection forming layer having an uneven portion including a first inclined portion and a second inclined portion; and a reflecting surface provided at a surface of the uneven portion. The light reuse sheet generates second light by reflecting first light toward a front plate, the first light being transmitted through a filling layer without being received by a light receiving face of a solar battery cell, the light reuse sheet generates third light by reflecting the second light at an interface between a light incident surface and outside of the front plate, and the light reuse sheet causes the third light to be incident to the light receiving face of the solar battery cell.

Abstract: A solar battery module comprising: a transparent front surface board receiving an incidence of a light; a packed bed which allows a light, which passed through the front surface board, to pass through; a solar battery cell comprising a light receiving surface and is fixed by the packed bed, wherein a light which passed through the packed bed is received by the receiving light surface and is converted into electricity; and a light reusing sheet positioned at a back surface side of the light receiving surface of the solar battery cell, the light reusing sheet comprising a reflecting layer comprising a reflecting surface which reflects a light which was not received by the light receiving surface.
