Abstract: A method of fabricating polysilicon gate structure in an image sensor device includes depositing a gate dielectric layer on a surface of a substrate. Then a polysilicon layer is deposited over the gate dielectric layer. Next, a protection film is deposited over the polysilicon layer. A hard mask is formed over the protection film, and the polysilicon gate structure is patterned. Following that, the hard mask is stripped off. The protection film exhibits etching selectivity against the polysilicon layer and has a thickness of between 40 and 60 angstroms. The hard mask is removed by phosphoric acid solution wet etching process.

Abstract: An image sensor is provided including a substrate, an array of photosensitive units, a grid, a light-tight layer and a plurality of color filters. In the image sensor, the grid has a top surface, and the light-tight layer is disposed on the top surface of the grid. Due to the light-tight layer on the grid, an incident light entering into the grid can be blocked by the light-tight layer, so that the crosstalk effect is reduced significantly. Further, a method for manufacturing the image sensor also provides herein.

Abstract: An image sensor is provided including a substrate, an array of photosensitive units, a grid and a plurality of color filters. In the image sensor, the grid has a first portion and a second portion disposed on the first portion. The second portion of the grid can cause reflection or refraction of incident lights targeted for one image sensor element back into the same image sensor element, so as to avoid crosstalk occurred. Further, a method for manufacturing the image sensor also provides herein.

Abstract: A device includes a plurality of photodiode regions within a semiconductor substrate, a plurality of transistors, a plurality of deep trench isolation (DTI) structures, and a plurality of isolation structures. The transistors are over a front-side surface of the semiconductor substrate. The DTI structures extend a first depth from a backside surface of the semiconductor substrate into the semiconductor substrate. The isolation structures extend a second depth from the backside surface of the semiconductor substrate into the semiconductor substrate. The second depth is less than the first depth. From a plan view, each of the plurality of isolation structures has a triangular profile at the backside surface of the semiconductor substrate.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an image sensor with a pad structure formed during a front-end-of-line process. The pad structure can be formed prior to formation of back side deep trench isolation structures and metal grid structures. An opening is formed on a back side of the image sensor device to expose the embedded pad structure and to form electrical connections.
