Abstract
An electro-optical device includes, above a substrate, data lines extending in a first direction, scanning lines which extend in a second direction and which cross the data lines, pixel electrodes and thin film transistors disposed so as to correspond to regions in which the data lines and the scanning lines cross, storage capacitors electrically connected to the thin film transistors and the pixel electrodes, and a shield layer disposed between the data lines and the pixel electrodes. An upper electrode and a lower electrode between which a dielectric film forming each storage capacitor is supported including a first portion laminated along a plane parallel with one surface of the substrate and a second portion laminated along a plane orthogonal to the surface of the substrate, the sectional shape of the capacitor including a projecting shape.
