Abstract
A solid-state imaging device includes an element forming region on the surface of a substrate, element isolating parts that isolate pixels, each of which is formed with a trench and a buried film, an opto-electric conversion element, and a buried-channel MOS transistor. The buried-channel MOS transistor includes a source region and a drain region, formed in the element forming region, that have a conductivity type opposite to that of the element forming region, a channel region having first and second impurity diffusion regions, which have a conductivity type opposite to that of the element forming region, and a gate electrode. Each first impurity diffusion region is formed between the source region and drain region on a side adjacent to one element isolating part. The second impurity diffusion region is formed across the region between the source region and drain region.
