Patent number: 11963430Abstract: An object is to provide a highly reliable display unit having a function of sensing light. The display unit includes a light-receiving device and a light-emitting device. The light-receiving device includes an active layer between a pair of electrodes. The light-emitting device includes a hole-injection layer, a light-emitting layer, and an electron-transport layer between a pair of electrodes. The light-receiving device and the light-emitting device share one of the electrodes, and may further share another common layer between the pair of electrodes. The hole-injection layer is in contact with an anode and contains a first compound and a second compound. The electron-transport property of the electron-transport layer is low; hence, the light-emitting layer is less likely to have excess electrons. Here, the first compound is the material having a property of accepting electrons from the second compound.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2023Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Semiconductor Energy Laboratory Co., Ltd.Inventors: Taisuke Kamada, Ryo Hatsumi, Daisuke Kubota, Naoaki Hashimoto, Tsunenori Suzuki, Harue Osaka, Satoshi Seo
