Liquid crystal device, manufacturing method thereof, and electronic device

A liquid crystal device comprising:

• an element substrate provided on a first surface with a driver circuit and a metal layer covering the driver circuit, the metal layer comprising a plurality of pixel electrodes and an extension portion provided around the plurality of pixel electrodes;
• a counter substrate disposed so as to oppose the first surface of the element substrate, and including a transparent electrode formed on a surface opposing the element substrate;
• a seal member provided between the element substrate and the counter substrate in a loop shape so as to surround at least a part of the metal layer in plan view;
• and
• liquid crystal enclosed in a region surrounded by the seal member;
• an outer peripheral edge of the element substrate including a first region on which the extension portion of the metal layer is formed so as to extend as far as the outer peripheral edge of the element substrate and a second region on which the metal layer is not disposed in a region along the outer peripheral edge of the element substrate, and
• wherein the seal member is not disposed at the outer peripheral edge in the first region.

A liquid crystal device comprising:

• an element substrate and a counter substrate that opposes the element substrate;
• the element substrate being provided on a first surface with a driver circuit and a metal layer covering the driver circuit, the first surface including a first region that includes a plurality of pixel electrodes and opposes the counter substrate, and a second region that surrounds the first region and opposes the counter substrate;
• a seal member provided on the second region, and between the element substrate and the counter substrate in a loop shape so as to surround the first region in plan view;
• and
