Patent ID: 7492012

Claim:
A light emitting device comprising: a switching element; a first insulating film comprising an inorganic material formed over the switching element; a second insulating film comprising an organic material formed over the first insulating film; a contact hole formed in the first insulating film and the second insulating film; a third insulating film comprising an inorganic material formed so as to cover a first portion of the second insulating film; a light emitting element formed over the third insulating film, said light emitting element comprising a first electrode, a light emitting layer, and a second electrode; a wire formed in the contact hole; and an insulating layer formed over the wire covering an edge of the first electrode, wherein the insulating layer is in contact with a second portion of the second insulating film which is not covered by the third insulating film, and wherein the wire extends over a part of the second insulating film and a part of the third insulating film and the switching element is electrically connected to the first electrode through the wire.
