A wafer for forming an imaging element has a test pattern and a plurality of imaging element units. The wafer has an imaging region which includes a great number of photoelectric conversion pixels, an imaging element units and a test pattern. The test pattern includes a testing organic photoelectric conversion film and a testing counter electrode having the same configuration and formed at the same time as the organic photoelectric conversion film and a counter electrode, respectively of the photoelectric conversion pixels. A first testing terminal is electrically connected to the undersurface side of the testing organic photoelectric conversion film, and a second testing terminal is electrically connected to the testing counter electrode. A protective film is formed over the entire semiconductor wafer so as to cover the imaging region and the test pattern, and is then partially removed so that a part of each testing terminal is exposed. |
