Abstract
An electro-optical apparatus includes a first pixel and a second pixel. The first pixel and the second pixel include a reflective layer, an insulating layer, a functional layer, and an opposing electrode. The insulating layer includes a first insulating layer, a second insulating layer having a first opening, and a third insulating layer having a second opening. A first pixel electrode is provided on the first insulating layer in the first opening. A second pixel electrode is provided on the second insulating layer.
