Abstract
A solid-state image sensor is provided. The sensor includes a substrate having a light-receiving surface. The substrate includes a charge accumulation portion that forms part of a photoelectric conversion element, a charge holding portion arranged at a position deeper than the charge accumulation portion from the light-receiving surface, and a first transfer portion configured to transfer charges generated by the photoelectric conversion element to the charge holding portion along a depth direction of the substrate. A distance between the charge holding portion and the light-receiving surface is not less than 4 μm.
