Claim 7:
8. An electronic device, comprising:
an optical component;
an imaging device on which light transmitted through the optical component is incident; and
a signal processing circuit configured to process a signal output from the imaging device,
wherein the imaging device includes
a light receiving element; and
a read circuit configured to read an electric signal photoelectrically converted by the light receiving element,
a field effect transistor included in the read circuit includes
a semiconductor layer in which a channel is formed,
a gate electrode configured to cover the semiconductor layer, and
a gate insulating film disposed between the semiconductor layer and the gate electrode,
the semiconductor layer includes
a main surface, and
a first side surface located on one end side of the main surface in a gate width direction of the field effect transistor,
the gate electrode includes
a first portion configured to face the main surface via the gate insulating film, and
a second portion configured to face the first side surface via the gate insulating film, and
a crystal plane of the first side surface is a (100) plane or a plane equivalent to the (100) plane.
