Abstract
A plurality of pixel regions are aligned in a matrix in a semiconductor substrate, and each of the plurality of pixel regions includes an active region, two photoelectric conversion elements, two floating capacitance regions, and a first transistor. Each of the plurality of pixel regions includes two transfer transistors each having each of the two photoelectric conversion elements and each of the two floating capacitance regions. The first transistor is arranged within the pixel region, between one floating capacitance region and the other floating capacitance region of the two floating capacitance regions with respect to a direction in which the one floating capacitance region and the other floating capacitance region are aligned.
