    摘要: An imaging device includes: a semiconductor substrate; an effective pixel region including an effective pixel; a non-effective pixel region that is located around the effective pixel region and that does not include the effective pixel; a photoelectric converter that is located above the semiconductor substrate and that includes a first portion located in the effective pixel region and a second portion located in the non-effective pixel region; a light-shielding film that is located above the second portion of the photoelectric converter and that contains titanium or tantalum; and a functional film that is located on the light-shielding film and that is in contact with the light-shielding film. The functional film has a thickness less than a thickness of the light-shielding film.
