Abstract
The present technology relates to an imaging element and a semiconductor chip that can implement a low height of the imaging element. A first chip including a photo diode; and a second chip including a circuit processing a signal transmitted from the photo diode are stacked, and a charging film is disposed on a second face of the second chip that is on a side opposite to a first face on which the first chip is stacked. The charging film is disposed in a part or the entirety of the second face. For example, the present technology can be applied to an imaging element, in which a plurality of chips are configured to be stacked, that can implement a low height and a small size.
