ABSTRACT:
A solid-state imaging device can improve a detection sensitivity of a signal detecting means by decreasing a parasitic capacity of a horizontal signal line. In a solid-state imaging device in which a plurality of pixels are arranged in a matrix fashion, a pixel signal is flowed through a horizontal switch (39) to a horizontal signal line (40) as a signal charge, and a signal is outputted by a signal detecting means connected to the end off the horizontal signal line (40), an insulating gate-type field-effect transistor comprising the horizontal switch (39) includes channels extended at least in two directions between its source electrode connected to the horizontal signal line (40) and other drain electrode.
