Image sensor
Abstract:
A substrate includes a plurality of pixels arranged in a two-dimensional array structure and has a front side and a back side opposite to the front side. An interconnection is arranged on the front side of the substrate. An insulating layer, a color filter, and a micro-lens are arranged on the back side of the substrate. A pixel separation structure is disposed in the substrate. The pixel separation structure includes a conductive layer having a grid structure in a planar view of the image sensor and surrounds each of the plurality of pixels. A back side contact is vertically overlapped with and electrically connected to a grid point portion of the grid structure of the conductive layer of the pixel separation structure.
