Abstract

A solid-state imaging device includes a photoelectric converter, a transfer gate transistor, and an overflow gate transistor. The photoelectric converter is provided in a semiconductor substrate and generates photocharge. The transfer gate transistor is provided at a surface of the semiconductor substrate as a vertical transistor and reads the photocharge stored in the photoelectric converter. The overflow gate transistor is provided at the surface of the semiconductor substrate as a planar transistor and transfers the photocharge overflowing from the photoelectric converter.
