Electro-optical device and electronic apparatus comprising electro-optical device having color filter and sealing film
An electro-optic device includes a light-emitting element disposed above a substrate, an optically transparent sealing film covering the light-emitting element, and a color filter disposed on the sealing film so as to adjoin the sealing film. The sealing film includes a thin portion overlapping at least part of the light-emitting element, and a thick portion surrounding the thin portion. The thin portion and the thick portion form a recess in the sealing film. The color filter fills the recess.
