Abstract

A photoelectric conversion device is disclosed. The photoelectric conversion device includes a semiconductor substrate having a plurality of photoelectric converters, a multilayer wiring structure arranged on the semiconductor substrate, and a planarized layer arranged on the multilayer wiring structure. The multilayer wiring structure includes a first wiring layer, an interlayer insulation film arranged to cover the first wiring layer, and a second wiring layer serving as a top wiring layer arranged on the interlayer insulation film. The planarized layer covers the interlayer insulation film and the second wiring layer. The second wiring layer is thinner than the first wiring layer.
