A range sensor includes a charge generating region, a signal charge collecting region, an unnecessary charge collecting region, a photogate electrode, a transfer electrode, and an unnecessary charge collecting gate electrode. Outer peripheries of the charge generating region extend to sides of a polygonal pixel region except for corner portions thereof. The signal charge collecting region is disposed at a center portion of the pixel region and inside the charge generating region so as to be surrounded by the charge generating region. The unnecessary charge collecting region is disposed in the corner portion of the pixel region and outside the charge generating region. The photogate electrode is disposed on the charge generating region. The transfer electrode is disposed between the signal charge collecting region and the charge generating region. The unnecessary charge collecting gate electrode is disposed between the unnecessary charge collecting region and the charge generating region.
