To suppress the reduction in transmission efficiency due to the change of the chief ray angle in spite of using structural color filters. A solid-state imaging element includes: a light receiving element included in a plurality of pixels; structural color filters located above at least part of the light receiving element and each including a metal film a periodic opening pattern with a structural period smaller than a prescribed wavelength; and an interconnection layer located below the light receiving element and configured to acquire a signal of light detected by the light receiving element.
