Abstract
A photoelectric conversion device includes a semiconductor substrate, an insulating layer, a light-receiving pixel region, first and second light-shielded regions, and a peripheral region. The insulating layer allows light to pass through the insulating layer. The first light-shielded region includes a light-shielding film formed on the insulating layer. The peripheral region has an opening that penetrates the insulating layer and the semiconductor substrate and exposes a bonding pad of the semiconductor substrate. A first trench is formed in the semiconductor substrate in the second light-shielded region. A second trench is formed in the insulating layer in the second light-shielded region and penetrates the insulating layer. A side face and a bottom face of the second trench are covered with the light-shielding film formed on the insulating layer. In a planar view to the semiconductor substrate, the first trench and the second trench have portions overlapping each other.
