Abstract

A solid-state imaging device includes an N-type semiconductor layer, an element layer including a photoelectric conversion element and an active element, an interconnect layer providing an interconnect for the active element, and an element isolation trench penetrating the semiconductor layer. The element layer includes a P-type region and an N-type region. A first hole storage layer is formed on a surface of the semiconductor layer on a side opposite to the element layer. A second hole storage layer is formed in contact portions of the semiconductor layer and the element layer with the element isolation trench. The P-type region of the element layer and the first hole storage layer are connected to each other by the second hole storage layer.
