Abstract

In an electro-optical device, a first ion trap electrode, a second ion trap electrode, and a third ion trap electrode are provided between a pixel region and a sealing material, the first ion trap electrode, the second ion trap electrode, and the third ion trap electrode are applied with signals whose phases are shifted by 120° from each other. Since a diffusion preventing portion in which the thickness of an electro-optical layer is thinner than the thickness of the pixel region is provided between a pixel electrode and the first ion trap electrode, ionic impurities are less likely to diffuse into the pixel region even if application of a potential to an ion trap electrode is paused.
