ABSTRACT:
A solid-state image capturing device includes a first detecting unit for detecting a first wavelength component and a second detecting unit for detecting a second wavelength component which has a longer wavelength than at least the first wavelength component and wherein in a depth direction, an active region where a first type dopant of the second detecting unit is located is deeper than an active region where a first electroconductive type dopant of the first detecting unit is located. A signal processor modifies an output signal from at least one detecting unit based on a received signal quantity at another detecting unit and a type of filter above at least one of the detecting units.
