A solid-state image pickup device includes a semiconductor substrate having a light-incident surface, a plurality of pixels arranged on the light-incident surface, a photodiode arranged in each of the pixels, an insulating film arranged on the semiconductor substrate and configured to cover the photodiodes, wirings embedded in the insulating film, an etching stopper film distant from the lowermost wiring among the wirings, arranged adjacent to the semiconductor substrate, configured to cover at least a region where each of the photodiodes is arranged, and composed of silicon carbide, a trench arranged above each of the photodiodes so as to reach the etching stopper film, and an optical waveguide with which each of the trenches is filled, the optical waveguide having a higher refractive index than the insulating film.
