    摘要: A method of manufacturing a back-side (14) illuminated image sensor (1) is disclosed, comprising the steps of: starting with a wafer (2) having a first (3) and a second surface (4), providing light sensitive pixel regions (5) extending into the wafer (2) from the first surface (3), securing the wafer (2) onto a protective substrate (7) such that the first surface (3) faces the protective substrate, the wafer comprising a substrate of a first material (8) with an optical transparent layer (9) and a layer of semiconductor material (10), wherein the substrate (8) is selectively removed from the layer of semiconductor material by using the optical transparent layer (9) as stopping layer. For back-side illuminated image sensors, light has to transmit through the semiconductor layer and enter into the light sensitive pixel regions (5). In order to reduce absorption losses, it is very advantageous that the semiconductor layer (10) can be made relatively thin with a good uniformity. Because of the reduced thickness of the semiconductor layer, more light can enter into the light sensitive regions, resulting in an improved efficiency of the image sensor.

    摘要: The invention relates to a camera device and a method for manufacturing such a device. The camera device comprises an image capturing element, a lens element for imaging an object at the image capturing element and a spacer means for maintaining a predetermined distance along the main optical axis through the lens and the image capturing element, and lens substrate for carrying the lens wherein the spacer means comprises an adhesive layer. This enables a mass manufacturing process wherein parts of the individual camera elements can be manufactured in manifold on different substrates, after which the different substrates are stacked, aligned and joined via adhesive layers. In the manufacturing process the different distances between the plates and the wafers are adjusted and maintained via the spacer means comprising the adhesive layers. From the stack individual camera devices are sawn out.

    摘要: A semiconductor body has a surface structure (10) with an insulating layer (11) through which is formed an opening (12) defining a side wall (13) of insulating material bounding an exposed surface area (14a) of a region (14). An activating layer (15) is provided on the exposed surface area (14a) and the side wall (13) of the opening (12), and electrically conductive material deposited on the activating layer (15) to form an electrically conductive region (16) in the opening (12). The activating layer is provided so that the material (15a) on the sidewall (13) has different composition from the material (15b) on the exposed surface area (14a) and is selectively etched to remove the material (15a) from the sidewall (13) of the opening (12) leaving only the activating layer portion (15b) on the surface area (14a) of the underlying region so that little or no deposition of the electrically conductive material occurs on the opening sidewall (13), thereby inhibiting sideways growth of the electrically conductive material and thus avoiding or at least reducing the possibility of voids being formed in the electrically conductive region.

    摘要: A method of the kind consisting in that a contact is obtained with an active zone (11) carried by a semiconductor substrate (10) by means of conductive contact studs (18a) located in the contact openings (16c) of an isolating layer (12) and in that then a metallic configuration of interconnections (22) is formed establishing the conductive connection with the conductive contact studs (18a). A separation layer (13) is provided between the isolating layer (12) and the conductive layer (18), which can be eliminated selectively with respect to the isolating layer (12). Thus, the isolating layer (12) retains its original flatness and the conductive contact studs (18a) have an upper level (20) exceeding slightly the level (21) of the isolating layer (12), thus favoring the contact between these contact studs (18a) and the metallic configuration of interconnections (22). Application in microcircuits having a high integration density.
