Title:
IMAGING DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SAME, ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/100556
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] To provide an imaging device capable of increasing the saturation signal amount. [Solution] Provided is an imaging device including: a semiconductor substrate; a photoelectric conversion unit that is provided on the semiconductor substrate and generates a charge in response to received light intensity via photoelectric conversion; a charge holding unit that is disposed closer to a first surface of the semiconductor substrate than to the photoelectric conversion unit and holds a charge transferred from the photoelectric conversion unit; a charge transfer unit that transfers a charge from the photoelectric conversion unit to the charge holding unit; and a first light control member that is provided inside the photoelectric conversion unit and disposed along the first surface of the semiconductor substrate. The photoelectric conversion unit includes a first photoelectric conversion region provided in a region spaced from the first light control member and a second photoelectric conversion region disposed along at least a portion of a surface of the first light control member.
