Solid-state imaging device with improved image sensitivity
摘要:
The solid-state imaging device according to the present invention comprises: a plurality of light-sensitive elements 1 arranged in a matrix form at regular spacings in a photoreceiving region provided on a semiconductor substrate; a plurality of detecting electrodes provided on the semiconductor substrate corresponding to the plurality of the light-sensitive elements for detecting an electrical charge generated by each light-sensitive element; a light-shielding film 58 coating the plurality of detecting electrodes and having an aperture 65 over each light-sensitive element; and a plurality of reflecting walls 62, which are formed in a grid pattern over the light-shielding film so as to partition the apertures individually over the respective light-sensitive elements, for reflecting a portion of light entering the semiconductor substrate from above onto the aperture on each light-sensitive element. The plurality of reflecting walls are formed so that a middle point of the reflecting walls opposing each other across the aperture is displaced from a center of the aperture toward a center of the photoreceiving region.
