An organic electroluminescence device with a low reflectivity includes organic electroluminescence layers, a transparent electrode, a thin metal electrode, a control layer, and an auxiliary electrode. The transparent electrode and the thin metal electrode are sited on both sides of the OEL layer, respectively, in order to excite it to emit light. The auxiliary electrode and the thin metal electrode are mostly separated by a control layer. Both the auxiliary electrode and the thin metal electrode are locally connected to maintain electrically connected. Therefore, the control layer is not necessarily conductive and its material selection is not restricted by the requirement of work function matching with adjacent layers. The disclosed OLED device with a low reflectivity does not require a circular polarizer. It can be used for both active-matrix and passive-matrix OLED displays. The reflection of ambient light can be largely reduced to increase the contrast of the display panel.
