Abstract:
1. A solid-state imaging device comprising: a first substrate with a light sensing section that generates a signal charge in accordance with an amount of received light, the first substrate having a light incident side and an oppositely-facing non-light incident side, the first substrate including a floating diffusion to which signal charge is read out from the light sensing section, an overflow drain region into which excess signal charge can be directed and an overflow barrier between the overflow drain region and the light sensing section; a second substrate with a first side adjacent the non-light incident side of the first substrate, the second substrate including a contact member that is connected to the non-light incident-surface side of the first substrate to supply a desired voltage to the overflow barrier from a wire in the second substrate, and a third substrate adjacent a second side of the second substrate, wherein,
