Abstract

The solid-state imaging element includes a plurality of first light receiving pixels that receives visible light, a plurality of second light receiving pixels that receives infrared light, a separation region, and a light shielding wall. The plurality of first light receiving pixels and the plurality of second light receiving pixels are arranged in a matrix, and the separation region is arranged in a lattice pattern and has a plurality of intersection portions. The light shielding wall is provided in the separation region, and includes a first light shielding wall provided along a first direction in plan view, and a second light shielding wall provided along a second direction intersecting the first direction in plan view. In addition, the first light shielding wall and the second light shielding wall are spaced apart at the intersection portion of at least a part of the separation region.
