The organic electroluminescence device and a lighting device

The organic electroluminescent device 1 includes a light transmissive substrate 2, a light transmitting electrode 4 and counter electrode 5 made of a light-transmitting electrode 4 and the counter, and the sealing substrate 3 facing the light transmissive substrate 2, an organic It includes a light-emitting layer 6, a resin structural part 9, a. The organic light emitting layer 6 is disposed between the light transmitting electrode 4 and the counter electrode 5. The organic light emitting layer 6 is sealed by a light transmissive substrate 2 and the sealing substrate 3. Resin structure 9 is disposed between the light-transmitting electrode 4 and the light transmissive substrate 2. Resin structure 9 is constituted by a plurality of resin layers containing a refractive index different high refractive index layer 15 and the low refractive index layer 16. High refractive index layer 15 contains a hygroscopic material 10 physical adsorptive.
