The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor device having a lateral resonance structure to coherently reflect light toward the image sensor. The semiconductor device includes an image sensing element arranged within a substrate. A radiation absorption region is arranged within the substrate and above the image sensor, and contains an array of protrusions having a characteristic dimension and an outer border. A resonant structure containing a plurality of deep trench isolation (DTI) structures is disposed on opposing sides of the image sensing element. The (DTI) structures surround the outer border of the array of protrusions. An inner surface of the DTI structure is laterally spaced apart from the outer border of the array of protrusions by a reflective length based on the characteristic dimension of the array of protrusions, thus affecting coherent reflection of light back toward the image sensor.
