ABSTRACT:
There is provided a method for manufacturing a solid-state image device which includes the steps of: forming a silicon epitaxial growth layer on a silicon substrate; forming photoelectric conversion portions, transfer gates, and a peripheral circuit portion in and/or on the silicon epitaxial growth layer and further forming a wiring layer on the silicon epitaxial growth layer; forming a split layer in the silicon substrate at a side of the silicon epitaxial growth layer; forming a support substrate on the wiring layer; peeling the silicon substrate from the split layer so as to leave a silicon layer formed of a part of the silicon substrate at a side of the support substrate; and planarizing the surface of the silicon layer.
