    摘要: A liquid crystal dimmer includes: a liquid crystal dimming device adjusting a transmitted light amount of incident picked-up image light; a driving section supplying a drive voltage for driving the liquid crystal dimming device to the liquid crystal dimming device; and a control section controlling the drive voltage to control a dimmed state of the liquid crystal dimming device. The control section controls the drive voltage to allow plural-stage shifting of a tilt angle of a liquid crystal molecule in the liquid crystal dimming device when the liquid crystal dimming device is caused to undergo a state transition from one dimmed state to another dimmed state, the dimmed states being different from each other in the transmitted light amount.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a solid-state imaging element in which the cost reduction of a curved imaging element can be achieved, a method for manufacturing the solid-state imaging element, and an electronic apparatus. A curvature base is formed so as to be curved in a concave shape at a center leaving a small edge. The curvature base is divided into five portions of an element disposition portion and four peripheral portions. This element disposition portion is formed in a porous state. A pore (air bubble) in the porous state is smaller than a pixel size. A porous material such as a ceramic-based material, a metal-based material, or a resin-based material can be used as the porous material, for example. The present disclosure can be applied to a CMOS solid-state imaging element to be used for an imaging device, for example.
