Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal device comprising: a first substrate on a light incident side; a second substrate on a light exit side; and a liquid crystal layer between the first substrate and the second substrate, one of the first substrate and the second substrate having a light transmission section at a position overlapping a plurality of pixels in a plan view and a light-shielding section at a position overlapping a space between the plurality of pixels in a plan view, the first substrate having a condensing lens that condenses incident light into an inside of the light transmission section, the second substrate having a prism element that condenses light passing and spreading through the light transmission section into a position overlapping the light-shielding section in a plan view, and the prism element including a groove, wherein a cover portion occupying a portion of the groove close to the liquid crystal layer is formed between the light-shielding section and the prism element, wherein an inside of the groove is a void, wherein a part of the cover portion penetrates into a portion of the groove close to the liquid crystal layer, and wherein a reflection film is formed in a portion at least overlapping the portion of the groove into which the part of the cover portion penetrates and in the opening portion on the upper side of the groove.
