ABSTRACT:
An amplification type solid-state imaging device according to the present invention includes: a first gate region functioning as a photoelectric conversion region, a second gate region, and a source region, the first gate region surrounding the source region, and the second gate region adjoining the first gate region on a side opposite the source region, to discharge signal charge accumulated in the first gate region through the second gate region. The center of the source region is displaced from the center of a pixel.
