Patent ID: 8848092

Claim:
A solid-state imaging device comprising: a light-receiving element; and a multilayer film having a laminated structure disposed on a side of a light-receiving surface of the light-receiving element, the laminated structure including a defect layer laminated between a plurality of layers, wherein the plurality of layers are made of materials having different refractive indices and each layer of the plurality of layers is based on a wavelength of light, wherein the defect layer includes: a plurality of kinds of materials having different refractive indices that coexist in a surface parallel to the light-receiving surface, wherein a ratio of the materials transmits a specific color component of light, and different ratios of materials at different positions which are respectively located closer to a central portion and a periphery of an effective imaging region that is formed by each of the light-receiving elements such that a higher refractive index is obtained at the periphery of the effective imaging region than at the central portion.
