Abstract

See full text

The solid-state imaging device according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a semiconductor substrate, a plurality of photoelectric conversion regions arrayed in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction on the surface of the substrate, and an electric charge transfer region disposed between the photoelectric conversion regions adjacent in the horizontal direction of the substrate. The substrate comprises a n-type semiconductor substrate, a first p-type impurity region formed on the n-type semiconductor substrate, a semiconductor regions formed on the first p-type impurity region, and a second p-type impurity region disposed below the electric charge transfer region. The photoelectric conversion region and the electric charge transfer region are n-type impurity regions formed on the surface portion of the semiconductor region. A third p-type impurity region is formed in at least one region selected from the group consisting of a region located between the photoelectric conversion regions adjacent in the vertical direction and a region located below the second p-type impurity region between the photoelectric conversion regions adjacent in the horizontal direction in the semiconductor region.
