A pinning layer of the first conductivity type extends at least across the photodetector from the gate. A channel region of the first conductivity type extends generally from a midpoint of the gate at least across the photodiode and is formed by an implant of a dopant of the first conductivity and having a concentration such that a dopant concentration of the transfer region is greater proximate to the photodetector than proximate to the floating diffusion.

    摘要: CMOS image sensor having high sensitivity and low crosstalk, particularly at far-red to infrared wavelengths, and a method for fabricating a CMOS image sensor. A CMOS image sensor has a substrate, an epitaxial layer above the substrate, and a plurality of pixels extending into the epitaxial layer for receiving light. The image sensor also includes at least one of a horizontal barrier layer between the substrate and the epitaxial layer for preventing carriers generated in the substrate from moving to the epitaxial layer, and a plurality of lateral barrier layers between adjacent ones of the plurality of pixels for preventing lateral diffusion of electrons in the epitaxial layer.
