Abstract
The present invention provides a solid-state imaging apparatus and the like which is able to support an optical system whose incident angle is wide. Each pixel is 2.25 μm square in size, and includes a distributed index lens (), a color filter (for example, for green) (), an Al interconnections (), a signal transmitting unit (), a planarized layer (), a light-receiving device (Si photodiodes) (), and an Si substrate (). The two-stage concentric circle structure of the distributed index lens is formed by SiO(n=2) with the film thickness 1.2 μm ('grey color'), the film thickness 0.8 μm ('dots pattern') and the film thickness of 0 μm (“without pattern: white color”), and the medium surrounding the distributed index lens ()is air (n=1).
