Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor device, a manufacturing method, a solid state image sensor, and electronic equipment that can achieve further improvement in reliability. Connection pads are formed in interlayer films provided respectively in interconnection layers of a sensor substrate on which a sensor surface having pixels is formed and a signal processing substrate configured to perform signal processing on the sensor substrate to make an electrical connection between the sensor substrate and the signal processing substrate. Then, a metal oxide film is formed between the interlayer films of the sensor substrate and the signal processing substrate, between the connection pad formed on a side toward the sensor substrate and the interlayer film on a side toward the signal processing substrate, and between the connection pad formed on the side toward the signal processing substrate and the interlayer film on the side toward the sensor substrate. The present technology can be applied to a laminated-type CMOS image sensor, for example.

Claim (Index 7):
The semiconductor device according to  claim 2 , wherein a pretreatment through use of liquid or gas containing hydrogen is performed on the metal film in a state where the metal film has been formed on the entire surface of the interlayer films and the connection pads.
