Abstract

A solid-state imaging device including: a first substrate having a pixel unit, and a first semiconductor substrate and a first wiring layer; a second substrate with a circuit, and a second semiconductor substrate and a second wiring layer; and a third substrate with a circuit, and a third semiconductor substrate and a third wiring layer. The first and second substrates are bonded together such that the first wiring layer and the second semiconductor substrate are opposed to each other. The device includes a first coupling structure for electrically coupling a circuit of the first substrate and the circuit of the second substrate. The first coupling structure includes a via in which electrically-conductive materials are embedded in a first through hole that exposes a wiring line in the first wiring layer and in a second through hole that exposes a wiring line in the second wiring layer or a film-formed structure.
