Abstract
An imaging device includes: a semiconductor substrate; pixel electrodes located above the semiconductor substrate and each electrically connected to the semiconductor substrate; a counter electrode located above the pixel electrodes; a first photoelectric conversion layer located between the counter electrode and the pixel electrodes; and at least one first light-shielding body located in or above the first photoelectric conversion layer. The first photoelectric conversion layer contains a semiconducting carbon nanotube that absorbs light in a first wavelength range and an organic molecule that covers the semiconducting carbon nanotube, absorbs light in a second wavelength range, and emits fluorescence in a third wavelength range. The at least one first light-shielding body absorbs or reflects light with a wavelength in at least part of the second wavelength range.
