ABSTRACT:
A solid-state imaging device of the present invention includes a base13, a plurality of photoelectric conversion portions11formed in a surface of the base13, and an insulating film18formed above the base13. Openings18hare formed in the insulating film18so that each of the openings18his located above each of the photoelectric conversion portions11. Optical waveguides19having a refractive index higher than that of the insulating film18are formed in each of the openings18h. And the optical waveguides19are made of a composite material containing a resin19aand inorganic particles19b.
