    Abstract: An image sensor includes a photoelectric conversion layer including a plurality of first photoelectric conversion elements and a plurality of second photoelectric conversion elements adjacent to the first photoelectric conversion elements. A light shield layer shields the second photoelectric conversion elements and has respective openings therein that provide light transmission to respective ones of the first photoelectric conversion elements. The image sensor further includes an array of micro-lenses on the photoelectric conversion layer, each of the micro-lenses overlapping at least one of the first photoelectric conversion elements and at least one of the second photoelectric conversion elements.

    Abstract: An operation method of a nonvolatile memory device includes receiving a read command and an address, increasing a voltage applied to an unselected word line from an off voltage to a read pass voltage during a setup phase in response to the read command, increasing a voltage applied to an unselected string selection line from the off voltage to a pre-pulse voltage during a first setup phase of the setup phase, increasing a voltage applied to an unselected ground selection line from the off voltage to the pre-pulse voltage during the first setup phase, applying a read voltage to a selected word line to read data corresponding to the address, during a sensing phase following the setup phase, and outputting the read data through data lines after the sensing phase. During the setup phase, a slope of the voltage applied to the unselected word line is varied.
