An infrared imaging element according to an embodiment includes: a semiconductor substrate including a stacked structure of a silicon first substrate, and a first insulation film, first cavities being provided on a surface of the first substrate; an infrared detection unit provided in the semiconductor substrate and including, detection cells provided respectively over the first cavities, each of the detection cells having diodes and a second insulation film, the first insulation film converting incident infrared rays to heat, the diodes converting the heat obtained by the first insulation film to an electric signal, a third insulation film having a top face located at a greater distance from the semiconductor substrate as compared with a top face of the second insulation film; and a second substrate provided over the third insulation film. A second cavity is formed between the second substrate and the infrared detection unit. |
