A light-emitting device includes a base; a plurality of first electrodes;
a partition having a plurality of openings located at positions
corresponding to the first electrodes; organic functional layers each
arranged in the corresponding openings; a second electrode covering the
partition and the organic functional layers; an organic buffer layer
covering the second electrode; a gas barrier layer covering the organic
buffer layer; and an intermediate protective layer, disposed between the
organic buffer layer and the gas barrier layer, having an elasticity
which is greater than that of the organic buffer layer and which is less
than that of the gas barrier layer. These layers and electrodes are
arranged on or above the base.
