    摘要: According to one embodiment, a light detector includes a first semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type, a first region, a quenching part, a second region, and a first layer. The first region is located on a portion of the first semiconductor layer, includes a first-conductivity-type first semiconductor region that has a higher first-conductivity-type impurity concentration than the first semiconductor layer, and includes a second semiconductor region of a second conductivity type provided on the first semiconductor region. The quenching part is electrically connected to the second semiconductor region. The second region is located on another portion of the first semiconductor layer, includes a second-conductivity-type third semiconductor region, and includes a first-conductivity-type fourth semiconductor region provided on a portion of the third semiconductor region. The first layer is located on the second region and includes a resin that absorbs or reflects light.

    摘要: According to an embodiment, an image processing method is implemented in an imaging device that includes a microlens array including microlenses, a main lens configured to guide light from a photographic subject to the microlens array, and an image sensor configured to receive the light after passing through the main lens and the microlens array. The method includes: obtaining an image captured by the image sensor; setting, according to an image height, an arrangement of a microlens image of interest and comparison-target microlens images from among microlens images that are included in the image and that are formed by the microlenses; detecting an amount of image shift between the microlens image of interest and each of the comparison-target microlens images by comparing the microlens image of interest with the comparison-target microlens images; and calculating a distance corresponding to the microlens image of interest using the amounts of image shift.
