Abstract
According to one embodiment, there is provided a solid-state image sensor including a photoelectric conversion layer, and a multilayer interference filter. The multilayer interference filter is arranged to conduct light of a particular color, of incident light, selectively to the photoelectric conversion layer. The multilayer interference filter has a laminate structure in which a first layer having a first refraction index and a second layer having a second refraction index are repeatedly laminated, and a third layer which is in contact with a lower surface of the laminate structure and has a third refraction index. A lowermost layer of the laminate structure is the second layer. The third refraction index is not equal to the first refraction index and is higher than the second refraction index.
