Abstract
This imaging device comprises: a first substrate having a pixel region R1 in which a plurality of pixels are arranged and a peripheral region R2 adjacent to the pixel region R1, the first substrate including a semiconductor substrate and an insulating layer positioned above the semiconductor substrate; a pixel electrode positioned on the upper surface of the insulating layer in the pixel region R1; a photoelectric conversion layer positioned above the pixel electrode; a counter electrode positioned above the photoelectric conversion layer; a through electrode electrically connected to the pixels and penetrating the semiconductor substrate in the peripheral region R2; and a connection electrode positioned on the upper surface of the insulating layer in the peripheral region R2 and electrically connected to the counter electrode. The through electrode is electrically insulated from the connection electrode. In plan view, the through electrode does not overlap the connection electrode.
