Method of manufacturing electro-optical device, electro-optical device, and electronic apparatus

A method of manufacturing an electro-optical device including an element substrate, on which pixel electrodes, pixel switching elements electrically connected to the pixel electrodes, and holding capacitors electrically connected to the pixel electrode are provided, a counter substrate on which common electrodes that face the pixel electrodes are provided, and an electro-optical layer which is provided between the element substrate and the counter substrate, the method comprising:

• forming the element substrate including
• forming a layered structure, which includes a plurality of films having a film that forms the pixel switching elements and a film that forms the holding capacitors, on one surface of the substrate;
• removing the substrate from another surface of the substrate after the forming of the layered structure;
• forming the pixel electrodes on a first surface of the layered structure which is a surface on a side, which is opposite to the holding capacitors, of the pixel switching elements, after the removing of the substrate;
• and
• providing a first lens surface, which includes a concave surface or a convex surface, and a first light-transmitting lens layer, which covers the first lens surface, on a second surface, on which the holding capacitors are located for the pixel switching elements, of the layered structure after the forming of the layered structure is performed.
