Abstract:
A solid-state imaging device comprising:a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type; a photoelectric conversion region of a second conductivity type formed in the semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type; a transfer channel region formed in the substrate so as to be juxtaposed to the photoelectric conversion region of a second conductivity type; a transfer electrode formed on the transfer channel region with a gate insulation film interposed therebetween; a conductive light-blocking film that covers the transfer electrode and that has an opening above the photoelectric conversion region of a second conductivity type; and a transparent conductive film that is formed on the photoelectric conversion region of a second conductivity type with an interlayer insulation film being interposed therebetween and vertically above the photoelectric conversion region of a second conductivity type, and that is connected electrically with the conductive light-blocking film.
