Abstract
It is an object to provide a light-emitting device and an electronic device which can provide an image with excellent image quality. One of the present inventions is a light-emitting device including a plurality of light-emitting elements each exhibiting a different emission color. At least one of the plurality of light-emitting elements has n light-emitting layers (n is a natural number, n≧2) between a pair of electrodes. Further, at least one of the n light-emitting layers includes a substance which provides emission from a triplet excitation state. In a light-emitting device having such a structure, an image is displayed by combining emissions from the plurality of light-emitting elements.
