A solid-state image sensor includes a semiconductor layer having a first conductive type, diffusion layers which are arranged in the semiconductor layer, each having a second conductive type, and each includes a pixel, a pixel transistor disposed on the semiconductor layer, and an insulating layer which is disposed under the pixel transistor and which is not disposed under the diffusion layers. The pixel transistor is disposed between the other pixels different from the pixel being electrically connected to the pixel transistor.
