Abstract
To provide a solid-state imaging device capable of further improving quality. Provided is a solid-state imaging device including: a first semiconductor element having a first semiconductor layer provided with a first through via and a photoelectric conversion unit configured to photoelectrically convert light that has been incident, a connection part that is wider than the first through via and is provided outside a region where the photoelectric conversion unit is provided on a surface of the first semiconductor layer on a side for receiving the light, connection wiring provided on the surface and configured to connect the first through via and the connection part, and a first passivation layer formed on the surface side; a second semiconductor element mounted on the first semiconductor element by the connection part; and a first guard ring formed on an outer peripheral portion of the first semiconductor element to surround the first semiconductor element. In the solid-state imaging device, at least a part of the first guard ring is arranged outside the first semiconductor layer and above a second semiconductor layer formed in substantially the same layer as the first semiconductor layer, and the first guard ring is arranged outside the first passivation layer and below a second passivation layer formed in substantially the same layer as the first passivation layer.
