Abstract

Provided is a solid-state imaging device that includes: a first pixel provided with a color filter layer having a transmission band in a visible light wavelength region on a light-receiving surface of a first light-receiving element; a second pixel provided with an infrared pass filter layer having a transmission band in an infrared wavelength region on a light-receiving surface of a second light-receiving element; an infrared cut filter layer that is provided on a position overlapping with the color filter layer and transmits light in the visible light wavelength region by blocking light in the infrared wavelength region; and a cured film provided in contact with the infrared cut filter layer.

Claims (28)
