Zusammenfassung:To improve the sensitivity of the imaging element. An imaging element includes pixels and a light guide wall. The pixels each include: a photoelectric conversion unit arranged in a semiconductor substrate to perform photoelectric conversion on incident light, an on-chip lens that concentrates the incident light on the photoelectric conversion unit, a color filter that transmits incident light having a predetermined wavelength within the concentrated incident light, and an interlayer film disposed between the semiconductor substrate and the color filter. The light guide wall is disposed at a boundary of the pixels and formed in a shape of surrounding the color filter, the light guide wall having an end portion disposed in a recess surrounding the pixel formed in the interlayer film at the boundary of the pixels to guide the incident light.
