Patent abstract
An EL element and an interface between a channel and an impurity diffusion area of a thin film transistor provided in the vicinity of the EL element are spaced apart. A light shielding film is provided between the EL element and the interface. By providing such a space and/or the light shielding film, generation of a leak current, which would otherwise be caused by light emitted from the self-emissive EL element entering the TFT, is reliably prevented, thereby ensuring that emitted light is not brighter than a predetermined luminance.
