Abstract:
An electro-optical device comprising:an electro-optical substance disposed between a first substrate and a second substrate; said first substrate including a plurality of first wires extending in a predetermined direction, pixel electrodes connected to said first wires via an active element, terminal, and a semiconductor circuit connected to said first wires and said terminal; said second substrate including opposing electrodes disposed so as to oppose said pixel electrodes and a plurality of second wires connected to said opposing electrodes and provided on one side of said second substrate in a direction substantially orthogonal to said predetermined direction; drive area where said pixel electrodes face said opposing electrodes via said electro-optical substance; and said first substrate further comprising a first dummy electrode, said first dummy electrode having a first dummy electrode unit extending along said first wires and being placed outside said drive area on the side opposite to said one side where said second wires are provided and a second dummy electrode unit passing between said first wires and said terminal, said first unit being formed continuously with said second unit and said one side being free of said first dummy electrode.
