A mask includes a substrate, an effective pixel formation region and a reference pattern formation region. A pixel pattern for forming a pixel component that constitutes a pixel is arranged in the effective pixel formation region. A reference pattern for indicating a reference position where pixel pattern should be arranged in the effective pixel formation region is arranged in the reference pattern formation region. Pixel pattern is arranged to be displaced from the reference position toward a center side of the effective pixel formation region.

Semiconductor device

A solid-state imaging device includes pixels respectively having photoelectric conversion units and arranged in matrix in basic pattern units, and an optical member arranged on the incidence side of incident light than the pixels and having constituent elements respectively corresponding to the pixels. The pixels include first, second and third wavelength range light pixels. Each basic pattern is comprised of a combined arrangement pattern of the wavelength range light pixels. Misregistration constituent elements with the occurrence of misregistration exist in the constituent elements. The misregistration increases toward the misregistration constituent elements separated from a center position of a pixel array of the pixels. The misregistration of the misregistration constituent element for the first wavelength range light pixel and that of the misregistration constituent element for the third wavelength range light pixel are smaller and larger than that of the misregistration constituent element for the second wavelength range light pixel, respectively.

Mask and method for manufacturing the same, and semiconductor device

Method of manufacturing semiconductor device including forming inter-layer insulating film on semiconductor substrate. First metal film is formed on inter-layer insulating film. First resist is formed on first metal film and patterned. Anisotropic etching performed on first metal film using first resist as mask. First resist is removed and second metal film is formed on inter-layer insulating film to cover remaining first metal film. Second resist is formed on second metal film in area where first metal film exists on inter-layer insulating film and part of area where first metal film does not exist. Anisotropic etching is performed on second metal film using second resist as mask and bonding pad having first metal film and second metal film, and upper layer wiring having second metal film and not first metal film. Second resist is removed. Surface protection film covering bonding pad is formed. Pad opening is formed on bonding pad.
