Provided is an organic light emitting element that can be driven at a low constant voltage, exhibits high luminous efficiency, and has an excellent lifetime characteristic. The organic light emitting element includes: a pair of electrodes; and an organic compound layer arranged between the pair of electrodes, in which a layer to be brought into contact with one of the pair of electrodes in the organic compound layer contains a lithium complex compound represented by the following general formula: n n n n n n n n n n in the formula [1], R 1 to R 16 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a cyano group, an alkyl group that may be substituted with fluorine, an alkoxy group that may be substituted with fluorine, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group. |
