摘要:
A fabricating method of a CMOS image sensor is disclosed, by which a light condensing effect is enhanced by providing an inner microlens to a semiconductor substrate. The CMOS image sensor includes a plurality of photodiodes on a semiconductor substrate, a plurality of inner microlenses on a plurality of the photodiodes, an insulating interlayer on a plurality of the inner microlenses, a plurality of metal lines within the insulating interlayer, a device protecting layer on the insulating interlayer, and a plurality of microlenses on the device protecting layer.
摘要:
There are many inventions described and illustrated herein. In one aspect, the present invention is directed to a technique of fabricating or manufacturing MEMS having mechanical structures that operate in controlled or predetermined mechanical damping environments. In this regard, the present invention encapsulates the mechanical structures within a chamber, prior to final packaging and/or completion of the MEMS. The environment within the chamber containing and/or housing the mechanical structures provides the predetermined, desired and/or selected mechanical damping. The parameters of the encapsulated fluid (for example, the gas pressure) in which the mechanical structures are to operate are controlled, selected and/or designed to provide a desired and/or predetermined operating environment.
