Original Abstract Submitted

An apparatus includes pixels each including regions provided in a layer and a microlens. The layer has a first depth, a second depth, and a third depth between the first and second depths in order from a side of a surface facing a surface where the microlens is formed. The layer includes a first portion that separates the regions at the first depth and extends in a first direction, a second portion that separates the regions at the second depth and extends in a second direction, and a third portion that separates the regions at the third depth and extends in a third direction. An angle formed by the first and third portions and less than or equal to 90 degrees is smaller than an angle formed by the first and second portions and less than or equal to 90 degrees.
