Abstract
An imaging device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a semiconductor substrate which has a first surface and a second surface opposed to each other, and in which a plurality of pixels are arranged in matrix, the semiconductor substrate including a plurality of photoelectric conversion sections that each generate electric charge corresponding to a light receiving amount by photoelectric conversion for each pixel; a first lens disposed for each pixel; a second lens disposed between the semiconductor substrate and the first lens for each photoelectric conversion section; a first separation section provided between adjacent photoelectric conversion sections in each pixel and optically separating the adjacent photoelectric conversion sections from each other; and a second separation section provided between adjacent pixels, optically separating the adjacent pixels from each other, and protruding farther than the first separation section in a light incident direction.
