A device having design film thicknesses, to suppress non-uniformity of a light emitting surface, to provide a quantum dot electroluminescence device with good luminous efficiency and light emitting life-span, and to provide an excellent quantum dot electroluminescence device with luminous efficiency and light emitting life-span. A quantum dot electroluminescence device including a hole transport layer, an electron transport layer, and a light emitting layer disposed between the hole transport layer and the electron transport layer, wherein the hole transport layer includes a polymer material and a low molecular material, the light emitting layer includes a quantum dot having a core-shell structure, and a residual film ratio of the hole transport layer is greater than or equal to about 95%.

A conductive polymer composition containing: a composite containing a π-conjugated polymer (A) and a polymer (B) shown by the following general formula (2); H.sub.2O (D) for dispersing the composite; and a water-soluble organic solvent (C). This provides a composition which has favorable filterability and film formability, and which is capable of relieving acidity and forming a conductive film with high transparency. Moreover, since the H.sub.2O dispersion of the conductive polymer compound is mixed with an organic solvent, the surface tension and the contact angle are so low that leveling property on a substrate is imparted. The composition is usable in droplet-coating methods. Since an organic solvent having a higher boiling point than H.sub.2O is used as the organic solvent, the composition can avoid solid content precipitation around a nozzle and solid content precipitation due to drying between ejecting the liquid material from a nozzle tip and landing on a substrate.
