Abstract: A unit pixel of an image sensor includes a photoelectric conversion region, a floating diffusion region, and a transfer gate. The photoelectric conversion region is in an active region defined by an isolation region of a semiconductor substrate. The photoelectric conversion region generates electric charges corresponding to incident light. The transfer gate transfers the electric charges to the floating diffusion region, which is located in the active region. The transfer gate includes first and second portions divided relative to a reference line, and at least one of the first or second portions does not overlap the isolation region.

Abstract: A semiconductor device may include a first conductive pattern disposed in a first interlayer insulating film, a second conductive pattern disposed in a second interlayer insulating film positioned on the first interlayer insulating film, a through electrode partially penetrating through the first interlayer insulating film and the second interlayer insulating film. The through electrode electrically connects the first conductive pattern and the second conductive pattern. The device further includes a first pattern completely surrounding side surfaces of the through electrode, and a second pattern between the first pattern and the through electrode. The second pattern is separated from the first pattern and the through electrode. The device includes a third pattern connecting the first pattern and the second pattern.

Abstract: A device includes a substrate and a plurality of unit pixels disposed in and/or on the substrate, arranged in a honeycomb pattern and separated from one another by a deep trench isolation (DTI) layer. The plurality of unit pixels may include a group of unit pixels radially arranged around and equidistant from a central unit pixel.
