A high-quality light emitting device is provided which has a long-lasting light emitting element free from the problems of conventional ones because of a structure that allows less degradation, and a method of manufacturing the light emitting device is provided. After a bank is formed, an exposed anode surface is wiped using a PVA (polyvinyl alcohol)-based porous substance or the like to level the surface and remove dusts from the surface. An insulating film is formed between an interlayer insulating film on a TFT and the anode. Alternatively, plasma treatment is performed on the surface of the interlayer insulating film on the TFT for surface modification.

A method of fabricating an integrated circuit device includes forming a first gate structure in a first region of a substrate and a second gate structure in a second region of the substrate. The method includes forming a protective layer overlying the first and the second gate structures. The method includes removing a portion of the protective layer over the second gate structure. The method includes forming features adjacent to the second gate structure. The method further includes forming a spacer over at least a portion of the features adjacent to the second gate structure, wherein the features separate the spacer from the substrate adjacent to the second gate structure. The method includes removing the second portion of the protective layer. Removing the second portion of the protective layer includes forming a protector over the second gate structure; and performing an etching process using a chemical comprising hydrofluoric acid (HF).
