1. A liquid crystal device comprising:
a first substrate including:
a first alignment film, and
a first silane compound layer covering the first alignment film;
a second substrate including:
a second alignment film, and
a second silane compound layer covering the second alignment film;
a seal material disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate;
a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate and an inside surrounded by the seal material in plan view; and
an adsorption layer containing xerogel disposed on a side surface of the seal material on a side of the liquid crystal layer, the adsorption layer being disposed in contact with a side surface of the first alignment film, a side surface of the first silane compound layer, a side surface of the second alignment film, and a side surface of the second silane compound layer.
