Abstract
A light-emitting device with high emission efficiency is provided. The light-emitting device includes an EL layer and a light-transmitting electrode. The EL layer includes a light-emitting layer and a low refractive index layer. The low refractive index layer is positioned between the light-emitting layer and the light-transmitting electrode. A cap layer is in contact with a surface of the light-transmitting electrode on the side opposite to the EL layer. The cap layer includes a high refractive index material having an ordinary refractive index of higher than or equal to 1.90 and lower than or equal to 2.40 and an ordinary extinction coefficient of higher than or equal to 0 and lower than or equal to 0.01. The low refractive index layer includes a low refractive index material having an ordinary refractive index of higher than or equal to 1.60 and lower than or equal to 1.70.
