The display device includes: an insulating substrate section that is a substrate having an insulation property; a thin film transistor section in which a thin film transistor is formed in each pixel on the insulating substrate section; a shutter mechanism section that is electrically driven by the thin film transistor of the thin film transistor section so as to control light transmission of each pixel. The shutter mechanism section has a mechanical layer that is a structural portion and a conductive layer that is formed on the mechanical layer. Both of the mechanical layer and the conductive layer are fixed in direct contact with the conductive portion formed on the thin film transistor section.
