Abstract:
A stack type image sensor may include: a first chip including a via isolation trench penetrating a first substrate, a via isolation layer including an insulation material in the via isolation trench, a first conductive layer on the first substrate, and a first insulation layer; a second chip including a second conductive layer on a second substrate, and a second insulation layer contacting the first insulation layer; a first via trench penetrating the first substrate to expose the second conductive layer with respect to the trench; and a first through via formed in the first via trench, and including a third conductive layer insulated from the first substrate by the via isolation layer, the third conductive layer electrically connecting the first conductive layer to the second conductive layer. The third conductive layer may be formed in the via isolation trench.
Abstract:
An image sensor is provided. The image sensor includes a substrate, a first interlayer insulating layer, a first metal line, and a shielding structure. The substrate includes a pixel array, a peripheral circuit area, and an interface area disposed between the pixel array and the peripheral circuit area. The first interlayer insulating layer is formed on a first surface of the substrate. The first metal line is disposed on the first interlayer insulating layer of the pixel array. The second interlayer insulating layer is disposed on the first interlayer insulating layer wherein the second interlayer insulating layer covers the first metal line. The shielding structure passes through the substrate in the interface area wherein the shielding structure electrically insulates the pixel array of the substrate and the peripheral circuit area.
Abstract:
An image sensor includes an inorganic color filter, an organic color filter, and a metal pattern. The inorganic color filter is on a support substrate. The organic color filter is on the support substrate. The organic color filter is spaced apart from the inorganic color filter. The metal pattern is between the inorganic color filter and the organic color filter.
