Disclosed is a solid state imaging device, comprising a unit pixel 101 including a photo diode 111 and a MOS transistor 112 for optical signal detection provided with a high-density buried layer 25 for storing optically generated charges generated by light irradiation in the photo diode 111, a vertical scanning signal driving scanning circuit 102 for outputting a scanning signal to a gate electrode 19, and a voltage boost scanning circuit 108 for outputting a boosted voltage higher than a power source voltage to a source region 16. In this case, a boosted voltage is applied from the voltage boost scanning circuit 108 to the source region 16, and the optically generated charges stored in the high-density buried layer 25 are swept out from the high-density buried layer 25 by a source voltage and a gate voltage risen by the boosted voltage.
