Patent attributes
An electro-optical device includes: data lines extending in a first direction above a substrate; scanning lines extending in a second direction and intersecting the data lines; pixel electrodes and thin-film transistors arrayed so as to correspond to intersection regions of the data lines and the scanning lines; capacitors formed at a layer higher than the semiconductor layer of the thin-film transistors and at a layer lower than the pixel electrodes, and electrically connected to pixel potential; and upper light shielding film positioned between the data lines and the pixel electrodes; the upper light shielding film defining at least the corners of pixel opening regions; and the scanning lines, the data lines, and the capacitors, being formed in the light shielded region.
