Abstract
There is provided an electro-optical device including, above a substrate, data lines extending in a first direction, scanning lines extending in a second direction and intersecting the data lines, pixel electrodes and thin film transistors disposed so as to correspond to intersection regions of the data lines and the scanning lines; and storage capacitors electrically connected to the thin film transistors and the pixel electrodes, the thin film transistors including semiconductor layers having channel regions which extend in a longitudinal direction and channel adjacent regions which extend further from the channel regions in the longitudinal direction, and the scanning lines including light-shielding parts disposed at sides of the channel regions.
