A light-emitting element of the present invention includes (i) a light-emitting layer ( 109 ), (ii) an electrode layer ( 110 ) being transparent to part of light emitted from the light-emitting layer ( 109 ), (iii) color converting layers ( 113, 114 ), and (iv) a transparent layer ( 115 ). The color converting layers ( 113, 114 ) and the transparent layer ( 115 ) sandwich the transparent electrode layer ( 110 ) with the light-emitting layer ( 109 ). The color converting layers ( 113, 114 ) and the transparent electrode layer ( 115 ) contain particles ( 116, 117, 118 ) expressing a surface plasmon phenomenon, respectively. |
