Patent ID: 11563046

Abstract:
An image pickup device having a pixel region in which pixels are arranged, and in which a multilayer wiring structure is disposed. Each pixel includes a photoelectric conversion unit, a charge accumulation unit, a floating diffusion, a light shielding portion covering the charge accumulation unit and opening above the photoelectric conversion unit, and a waveguide which overlaps at least partially a portion at which the light shielding portion opens in a plan view. The device includes an insulating film disposed below the optical waveguide. The insulating film has a refractive index higher than that of an interlayer insulating film. The insulating film is disposed closer to the photoelectric conversion unit than to the lowermost wiring layer among wiring layers of the multilayer wiring structure. The insulating film extends to a portion above the light shielding portion. The insulating film is wider than a lower portion of the optical waveguide.
