Abstract
In a line sensor including color filters that are periodically disposed in a light-receiving-element row, a problem called a 'mixture of colors' occurs. A 'mixture of colors' occurs when light that has been transmitted through a color filter differing from a color filter corresponding to a light receiving element is incident upon the light receiving element. In a CMOS sensorincluding a light-receiving-element row in which a plurality of photodiodesare disposed side by side in a main scanning direction and a plurality of color filtersthat are disposed in correspondence with the plurality of photodiodes, the center of each color filteris displaced in a direction of the center of the light-receiving-element row from the center of the photodiodecorresponding to the color filter.
