Abstract
A light emitting device having a light emitting element is provided in which total reflection at the interface between a substrate and the air is avoided and all of emitted light can be taken out. The light emitting device of the present invention is provided with a light reflector. Therefore light emitted from an organic compound layer, which otherwise would meet total reflection at the interface between the substrate and the air, is reflected by the light reflector so that the light can reach outside.
