Abstract
An EL display device including a light emitter configured to emit at least red, green, and blue light; and a thin film transistor array that controls light emission. The light emitter includes light-emitting layers within areas defined by a bank that emit at least red, green, and blue light. The light emitter further includes electrodes that extend under the bank and hole transport layers that are above the electrodes within the areas defined by the bank, the light-emitting layers being formed on the hole transport layers. The hole transport layers each have a main portion and a peripheral protrusion in contact with a side surface of the bank that protrudes upwards from the main portion. The light-emitting layers each have a peripheral protrusion in contact with a side surface of the bank, formed above a corresponding one of the peripheral protrusions.
