Abstract
An imaging apparatus includes a pixel region including a plurality of pixels, and bias wiring laid on a light incident side of pixels to supply a bias from a power supply to the pixels in the pixel region via a second side defining the pixel region. The bias wiring includes first wiring portions and second wiring portions laid around the pixels. The first wiring portions are laid in a Y direction away from the second side, and the second wiring portions are laid in an X direction orthogonal to the Y direction. The first wiring portions include a light non-transmissive member. A resistance of the first wiring portion per pixel is smaller than that of the second wiring portion per pixel. A loss of light due to the second wiring portion is smaller than that of the light incident due to the first wiring portion.
