Abstract: It is an object to provide a flexible light-emitting device with high reliability in a simple way. Further, it is an object to provide an electronic device or a lighting device each mounted with the light-emitting device. A light-emitting device with high reliability can be obtained with the use of a light-emitting device having the following structure: an element portion including a light-emitting element is interposed between a substrate having flexibility and a light-transmitting property with respect to visible light and a metal substrate; and insulating layers provided over and under the element portion are in contact with each other in the outer periphery of the element portion to seal the element portion. Further, by mounting an electronic device or a lighting device with a light-emitting device having such a structure, an electronic device or a lighting device with high reliability can be obtained.

Abstract: Thinned and highly reliable light emitting elements are provided. Further, light emitting devices in which light emitting elements are formed over flexible substrates are manufactured with high yield. One light emitting device includes a flexible substrate, a light emitting element faulted over the flexible substrate, and a resin film covering the light emitting element, and in the light emitting element, an insulating layer serving as a partition has a convex portion and the convex portion is embedded in the resin film, that is, the resin film covers an entire surface of the insulating layer and an entire surface of the second electrode, whereby the light emitting element can be thinned and highly reliable. In addition, a light emitting device can be manufactured with high yield in a manufacturing process thereof.

Abstract: It is an object of one embodiment of the preset invention to conduct separation without damaging a semiconductor element when the semiconductor element is made flexible. Further, it is another object of one embodiment of the preset invention to provide a technique for weakening adhesion between a separation layer and a buffer layer. Furthermore, it is another object of one embodiment of the preset invention to provide a technique for preventing generation of the bending stress on a semiconductor element due to separation. A semiconductor element formed over a separation layer with a buffer layer interposed therebetween is separated by dissolving the separation layer by using an etchant. Alternatively, separation is conducted by inserting a film into a region where a separation layer is dissolved by being in contact with an etchant and moving the film in a direction toward a region where the separation layer is not dissolved.
