  • Patent number: 11678079
    Abstract: An object is to improve a frame rate in a solid-state imaging element that employs a global shutter method. In the solid-state imaging element, a photoelectric conversion element generates a charge by photoelectric conversion. A charge holding transistor holds the charge. A backward flow prevention transistor generates a potential barrier between the photoelectric conversion element and the charge holding transistor immediately after the charge is transferred from the photoelectric conversion element to the charge holding transistor. A floating diffusion layer accumulates the charge and generates a voltage corresponding to an amount of the charge. A transfer transistor transfers the charge from the charge holding transistor to the floating diffusion layer.
