Light-emitting device, light-emitting appliance, display device, electronic appliance, and lighting device

A light-emitting device with high emission efficiency and reliability is provided. The light-emitting device includes a fluorescent light-emitting layer and a phosphorescent light-emitting layer. A host material used in the fluorescent light-emitting layer has a function of converting triplet excitation energy into light emission and a guest material used in the fluorescent light-emitting layer emits fluorescence. The guest material has a molecular structure including a luminophore and a protecting group, and one molecule of the guest material includes five or more protecting groups. The introduction of the protecting groups into the molecule inhibits transfer of triplet excitation energy from the host material to the guest material by the Dexter mechanism. An alkyl group or a branched-chain alkyl group is used as the protecting group. The longest wavelength absorption band in the absorption spectrum of the guest material in the phosphorescent light-emitting layer has an overlap with the emission spectrum of the host material in the phosphorescent light-emitting layer.
