Abstract:
1. An electro-optical device comprising: an electro-optical substance layer; a pair of substrates facing one another across said electro-optical substance layer so as to sandwich said electro-optical substance layer therebetween; and a layered structure formed on one of said substrates, said layered structure including said scanning lines, said data lines, said transistors, and said storage capacitors, being arrayed within a light shielding region around said pixel electrodes; wherein said pixel electrodes, and a semiconductor layer where said transistors are formed, are electrically connected via a first relay electrode layer at the same layer as said fixed electrode layer and a second relay electrode layer at the same layer as said data lines; and wherein said fixed electrode layer is discontinuous between adjacent data lines in said first direction, with said first relay electrode layer being formed at this discontinuous portion in a separated state from said fixed electrode layer, and with a plurality of contact holes formed in a formation region of said first relay electrode layer in a state of electrically connecting to said first relay electrode layer, said contact holes being arrayed so as to be adjacent one to another in said second direction.
