A color solid-state imager comprising a semiconductor body which has a photoelectric conversion function and which includes at least photosensitive elements and switching elements, and predetermined color filters which are formed on the body; characterized in that a light absorbing layer is disposed at least over a vicinity of an output terminal of each switching element. The contours of the color filters can be accurately formed, and unnecessary light can be intercepted to stabilize the electrical characteristics of the solid-state imager. |
