Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an image pickup device that inhibits color mixture or noise, and an electronic apparatus. The image pickup device of the present disclosure includes an image plane phase difference detection pixel for image plane phase difference AF. The image plane phase difference detection pixel includes: a first photoelectric conversion section; an upper electrode section that is one of electrodes disposed facing each other, the upper electrode section being formed on a light incident side first photoelectric conversion section; and a lower electrode section that is another of the electrodes disposed facing each other, the lower electrode section being formed on an opposite side of the first photoelectric conversion section, the lower electrode section being multiple-divided at a position that avoids a center of the incident light. The present disclosure is applicable to image sensors.
