[0062] Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Here, the same symbols are assigned to the same elements as those already described, and description thereof may be omitted. In the following, the transistor is assumed to be an n-type MOS, but a p-type MOS can also perform the same operation. In addition, what is described below as the source / drain of a transistor means either the source or the drain (in an actual device, the source and the drain are the same thing and cannot be distinguished). However, when one of them is given a higher voltage than the other, it is called a drain.

[0063] First, the configuration of the solid-state imaging device according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a solid-state imaging device and a switch circuit. Background technique [0002] In a general solid-state imaging device, an embedded photodiode is used as a photoelectric conversion unit. [0003] In addition, Patent Document 1 discloses a multilayer solid-state imaging device. In this multilayer solid-state imaging device, a photoelectric conversion film is formed on the control electrode, and a transparent electrode layer is formed on the photoelectric conversion film. The multilayer solid-state imaging device transmits the voltage applied to the transparent electrode to the control electrode through the action of the photoelectric conversion film, thereby converting optical information into an electrical signal with a good signal-to-noise ratio. [0004] A multilayer solid-state imaging device has a structure in which a photoelectric conversion film is formed on a semiconductor substrate on which a pixel circuit i...
