Abstract:
A solid-state imaging device includes: a semiconductor layer having a first surface and a second surface that oppose each other; and a plurality of photodiodes stacked in the semiconductor layer. One or more photodiodes of the plurality of photodiodes also serve as a transfer path of a signal charge accumulated in other photodiodes.
