PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce flare light attributable to an optical member bonded to a front surface of an imaging device and improve quality of a picked-up image.SOLUTION: In an imaging module that includes an imaging device 58, an optical member 55 bonded to a light receiving surface of the imaging device 58 for guiding incident light to an effective area of the imaging device 58, and a translucent light absorbing layer 55a laminated on a side end face perpendicular to the effective area of the optical member 55, a refraction index n2 of the light absorbing layer 55a to the optical member 55 formed of a material of a refraction index n1 is n2≒n1.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】 撮像素子前面に貼り付ける光学部材に起因するフレア光を低減し、撮像画像の高品質化を図る。【解決手段】 撮像素子58と、撮像素子58の受光面に貼り合わされ撮像素子58の有効エリアに入射光を導く光学部材55と、光学部材55の前記有効エリアに対し垂直となる側端面に積層された半透明の光吸収層55aとを備える撮像モジュールであって、屈折率n1の材料で形成された光学部材55に対し、光吸収層55aの屈折率n2をn2≒n1とする。【選択図】 図4
