Abstract
The invention provides, an electro-optic device that can include a pair of substrates sandwiching an electro-optic substance therebetween. The electro-optic device can further include a coating member including an antistatic material and being disposed on a surface not opposing the electro-optic substance of at least one of the pair of substrates. Accordingly, problems of dust adhesion on the surface of the electro-optic device and dust projection can be solved so as to enable images with high quality to be displayed.
Claims14
An electro-optic device, comprising:
- a pair of substrates having surfaces that sandwich an electro-optic substance therebetween;
- a display electrode disposed above one of the pair of substrates;
- wiring electrically connected to the display electrode directly or via a switching element;
- and
- a coating member including an antistatic material and that is disposed on at least one of the pair of substrates on a surface that is different from the surfaces that sandwich the electro-optic substance.
