Abstract:
An imaging device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a plurality of pixels. Each of the pixels has an active region including a first region and a second region with an electrode therebetween in plan view. A portion that is a portion of the active region and that is located under the electrode forms at least a portion of a capacitor. The first region includes a first semiconductor region of a first conductivity type that forms at least a portion of a floating diffusion, and the second region includes a second semiconductor region of a second conductivity type opposite to the first conductivity type. An insulating film is disposed on the second semiconductor region.
