A drain region is formed along a horizontal charge transfer channel constituting a horizontal charge transfer element, and a barrier region for charges is formed between the horizontal charge transfer channel and drain region. A two-electrode element is formed by using the horizontal charge transfer channel, barrier region and drain region. A solid state image pickup device can be manufactured with high productivity, which device can drain charges in the horizontal charge transfer element at high speed.
