This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18835910 titled 'SOLID-STATE IMAGING DEVICE

Original Abstract Submitted

A solid-state imaging device includes: a pixel including a photoelectric conversion element on a side of a first or light incident surface of a base; a pixel separation region surrounding a periphery of the pixel as viewed from a side of a second surface of the base; a transistor disposed on the side of the second surface of the base at a position corresponding to the pixel, the base having a periphery surrounded by the pixel separation region, the transistor having a direction of a gate length being oblique to the first direction or the second direction; and a FD region, a transfer gate electrode, or a base coupling section at the position corresponding to the pixel in a direction of a gate width of the transistor that is on the side of the second surface of the base, the transfer gate electrode being of a transfer transistor.
