Abstract: The present technology relates to a camera module that is enabled to have a lower height. The camera module includes a supporting component that includes an opening through which light from a lens collecting the light passes, the supporting component supporting an optical component between the lens and an imaging element that performs photoelectric conversion of the light, the optical component being placed so as to cover the opening and being supported on a side of the supporting component closer to the imaging element. In addition, around the opening, there is disposed a sloped portion inclined in the thickness direction of the supporting component, and the supporting component is placed such that the slope of the sloped portion and the lens face each other.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a sensor package, a method of manufacturing the same, and an imaging device that can achieve downsizing and height reduction and suppress occurrence of a flare. A sensor package includes: a solid-state imaging element that generates a pixel signal by photoelectric conversion in accordance with a light amount of incident light; a circuit board electrically connected to the solid-state imaging element; a sensor package substrate that is arranged on an incident light side of the solid-state imaging element and brings the solid-state imaging element into a sealed state; and a lens formed on a lower surface of the sensor package substrate, the lower surface being located on a side of the solid-state imaging element. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, the imaging device or the like.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a stacked lens structure and a method of manufacturing the same, and an electronic apparatus by which it is possible to realize miniaturization of a lens module. A stacked lens structure includes plural substrates with lens stacked on one another, the substrate with lens each having a lens disposed on inside of a through-hole formed in the substrate. In regard of side surfaces at side parts corresponding to sides of a rectangle surrounding the substrate with lens in plan view as viewed in an optical axis direction, a width and a shape are the same among all the substrates with lens, whereas in regard of side surfaces at opposite angle parts corresponding to opposite angles of the rectangle, the width or shape differs between at least two substrates with lens. The present technology is applicable, for example, to a lens module or the like.

Abstract: Manufacturing an imaging apparatus including, in an imaging lens optical system, a function to correct aberration is facilitated. A meta-lens and an imaging element constituting the imaging apparatus are formed by a semiconductor process. The meta-lens corrects aberration in the imaging lens optical system. The imaging element images incident light incident via the imaging lens optical system. The meta-lens may be formed inside the imaging element or on a surface of the imaging element or may be formed as a part of a wafer level chip size package.

Abstract: The present technology relates to an imaging device, a manufacturing device, and a manufacturing method that enable a reliable manufacturing device to be manufactured without an increase in the number of manufacturing steps. A substrate on which an image sensor is mounted, a frame that fixes an infrared cut filter (IRCF), and a unit including a lens are included. The image sensor is sealed by the substrate, the IRCF, and the frame. A vent connected to a space in which the image sensor is sealed is provided in a part of the frame. The vent is blocked by a member that bonds the unit and the frame together. The vent is provided in the frame, in a predetermined shape, and in a vertical direction with respect to a surface to which the member is applied. The present technology can be applied to the imaging device.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a camera module capable of reducing the number of steps in the manufacturing process and reducing a black spot failure, a method for manufacturing the camera module, an imaging apparatus, and an electronic instrument. A frame and the rigid flexible substrate are adhered to each other by adhesive formed of thermosetting resin applied on an abutment surface excluding a portion of a range including a bonding section with the FPC drawer unit, thereby forming a vent hole in a site where adhesive has not been applied. At this time, the air of the space between the frame and the rigid flexible substrate is expanded by the heat and discharged from the vent hole.
