The present invention provides OLEDs of the top emission type comprising
organic light-emitting (LE) elements by preventing the problems such as
the widening of the power lines, the reduction in the aperture ratio
caused by the widening of the upper and the lower capacitor electrodes
and the short circuit between the upper and the lower electrodes caused
by the roughness of the flattening layers. An OLED comprising a region of
LE layer sandwiched between the upper and lower electrodes is formed on a
power line of TFT for driving the pixel. Accordingly, without forming a
flattening layer on the light-emitting layer, there is no electric short
circuit between the lower electrode and the upper electrode.
