Abstract

See full text

A solid-state image sensor comprising a photoelectric conversion portion, a MOS transistor, a first insulating layer, a second insulating layer whose refractive index is higher than that of the first insulating layer, and a light-guiding portion including a first portion and a second portion formed on the first portion, wherein an angle that the side face of the first portion makes with a plane parallel to a light-receiving face of the photoelectric conversion portion is smaller than an angle that a side face of the second portion makes with the parallel plane, and a boundary between the first portion and the second portion is positioned higher than an upper face of a gate electrode of the MOS transistor, and lower than a boundary between the first insulating layer and the second insulating layer.
