Solid imaging device and electronic apparatus

Abstract

The present invention discloses a solid imaging device and an electronic apparatus, wherein the solid imaging device including: a pixel region that is formed on a light incidence side of a substrate and to which a plurality of pixels that include photoelectric conversion units is arranged; a peripheral circuit unit that is formed in a lower portion in the substrate depth direction of the pixel region and that includes an active element; and a light shielding member that is formed between the pixel region and the peripheral circuit unit and that shields the incidence of light, emitted from an active element, to the photoelectric conversion unit. The electronic apparatus comprises an optical system, a signal processing circuit and the solid imaging device. The solid imaging device and the electronic apparatus can inhibit the light outgoing from the active element to the photoelectric conversion units, thereby increasing the image quality of the solid imaging device.
