Abstract
A solid state imaging device comprises: photoelectric conversion portions on or above a substrate; and color filters on or above the respective photoelectric conversion portions. Each of the photoelectric conversion portions comprises: a lower electrode on or above the substrate; a photoelectric conversion film on or above the lower electrode; and an upper electrode on or above the photoelectric conversion film. The device further comprises: a first inorganic material film that protects each of the photoelectric conversion portions, is formed by a first method and is above the upper electrode and below the color filters; a second inorganic material film that prevents characteristic deterioration of the photoelectric conversion portion caused by the first method, is formed by a second method and is between the upper electrode and the first inorganic material film; and a polymeric material film that enhances a function of the first inorganic material film and is on or above the first inorganic material film.
