Abstract

There is provided a solid-state imaging device including first, second, and third substrates stacked in this order. The first substrate includes a first semiconductor substrate and a first wiring layer. A pixel unit is formed on the first semiconductor substrate. The second substrate includes a second semiconductor substrate and a second wiring layer. The third substrate includes a third semiconductor substrate and a third wiring layer. A first coupling structure couples two of the first, second, and third substrates to each other includes a via. The via has a structure in which electrically-conductive materials are embedded in one through hole and another through hole, or a structure in which films including electrically-conductive materials are formed on inner walls of the through holes. The one through hole exposes a first wiring line in one of the wiring layers. The other through hole exposes a second wiring line in another wiring layer.
