Abstract
An imaging element includes: a first substrate; first light receiving elements regularly disposed on the first substrate; first color filters each of which is disposed on a light receiving surface of the first light receiving elements; a second substrate disposed so that light transmitted through the first substrate is emitted thereto; second light receiving elements regularly disposed on the second substrate; second color filters each of which is disposed on a light receiving surface of the second light receiving elements; and a signal processor which generates a pixel signal corresponding to each of the plurality of first light receiving elements using the first signal and the second signal.
Claims6
An imaging element comprising:
- a first substrate;
- a plurality of first light receiving elements which are regularly disposed on the first substrate and output a first signal corresponding to an intensity of emitted light:
- a plurality of first color filters each of which is disposed on a light receiving surface of the first light receiving elements, and allow light in a first wavelength hand including at least a second wavelength band and a third wavelength band to be transmitted;
- a second substrate which is disposed so that light transmitted through the first substrate is emitted thereto;
- a plurality of second light receiving elements which are regularly disposed on the second substrate and output a second signal corresponding to the intensity of the emitted light;
- a plurality of second color filters each of which is disposed on a light receiving surface of the second light receiving elements, and allow light in the second wavelength band to be transmitted;
- and
- a signal processor which generates a pixel signal corresponding to each of the plurality of first fight receiving elements using the first signal and the second signal.
