Abstract
An imaging device includes: a semiconductor substrate; a plurality of pixel electrodes located above the semiconductor substrate and each electrically connected to the semiconductor substrate; a counter electrode located above the plurality of pixel electrodes; a first photoelectric conversion layer located between the counter electrode and the plurality of pixel electrodes; and at least one first light-shielding body located in the first photoelectric conversion layer or above the first photoelectric conversion layer. The first photoelectric conversion layer contains semiconductor quantum dots that absorb light in a first wavelength range and a coating material that covers the semiconductor quantum dots, the coating material absorbing light in a second wavelength range, the coating material emitting 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.
