Abstract
The present technology relates to a solid-state imaging device and an electronic apparatus capable of improving the accuracy of phase difference detection while suppressing degradation of a picked-up image. There is provided a solid-state imaging device including: a pixel array unit, a plurality of pixels being two-dimensionally arranged in the pixel array unit, a plurality of photoelectric conversion devices being formed with respect to one on-chip lens in each of the plurality of pixels, a part of at least one of an inter-pixel separation unit formed between the plurality of pixels and an inter-pixel light blocking unit formed between the plurality of pixels protruding toward a center of the corresponding pixel in a projecting shape to form a projection portion. The present technology is applicable to, for example, a CMOS image sensor including a pixel for detecting the phase difference.
