Abstract
A liquid crystal device have an element substrate including a scanning line, a data line and a pixel electrode, a cutout is formed on the pixel electrode. A capacitor line for providing a storage capacitor is formed on the element substrate. The capacitor line has a first and second portions. The first portion extends along with the scanning line, and a second line portion overlaps the cutout of the pixel electrode.
