Patent ID: 8669134

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a solid-state imaging device, comprising: forming a plurality of first patterns each having an independent island shape configured from an optical filter material on some of photoelectric conversion units among a plurality of photoelectric conversion units arranged on a surface of a substrate; forming a mixed color prevention layer on a side wall of each first pattern; forming a plurality of second patterns each having an independent island shape configured from an optical filter material on the rest of the photoelectric conversion units among the plurality of photoelectric conversion units, the mixed color prevention layer being disposed between each first pattern and each second pattern, and forming a plurality of lenses respectively over the plurality of first and second patterns, wherein, each first pattern corresponds to one of a red color filter, a green color filter, and a blue color filter, each second pattern corresponds to a white filter, and the plurality of second patterns and the plurality of lenses are formed from a same material such that a second pattern and a corresponding lens thereabove are integrally formed.
