| 1. A light emitting device comprising:
a first bank including an inorganic material formed on a first electrode;
a second bank including an organic material formed over the first bank;
a layer including a light-emitting organic material in contact with the first bank; and
a second electrode in contact with the first bank over the layer,
wherein a thickness of the first bank is larger than a thickness by laminating the layer and the second electrode, and
wherein a side face of the layer and a side face of the second electrode are aligned against a side face of the first bank.
