Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a solid-state imaging device and an electronic apparatus that can reduce the influence on an OPB pixel in a case where blooming has occurred in an aperture pixel. A solid-state imaging device that is one aspect of the present disclosure has a first photoelectric conversion portion, an upper electrode, and a lower electrode formed outside a substrate, the first photoelectric conversion portion performing photoelectric conversion in accordance with incident light, the upper electrode and the lower electrode being formed to sandwich the first photoelectric conversion portion. The solid-state imaging device includes: an aperture pixel that is disposed on a pixel array, and generates a normal pixel signal; an OPB pixel that is disposed at an end portion on the pixel array, and generates a pixel signal indicating a dark current component; and a charge releasing portion that is disposed between the aperture pixel and the OPB pixel, and releases electric charge flowing out from the aperture pixel. The present disclosure can be applied to back-illuminated vertical spectroscopic CMOS image sensors.
