Abstract
There is provided a solid-state imaging device that includes: colored pixels each including a first photoelectric conversion element and a colored filler; white pixels each including a second photoelectric conversion element and a clear layer; and an interlayer insulating film provided between the first photoelectric conversion element and the colored filter, and between the second photoelectric conversion element and the clear layer. The colored filter is provided on light-entering side of the first photoelectric conversion element. The clear layer is provided on light-entering side of the second photoelectric conversion element. The clear layer has a higher refractive index than a refractive index of the colored filter, and includes an inorganic dielectric film made of a different material from a material of the interlayer insulating film.
