IMAGE SENSOR DEVICE AND METHODS OF FORMING THE SAME

Abstract:

An image sensor device is disclosed which includes a semiconductor layer having a first surface and a second surface, where the second surface is opposite to the first surface. The device includes a conductive structure disposed over the first surface, with a dielectric layer disposed between the conductive structure and the first surface. The device includes a first dielectric layer disposed over the second surface of the semiconductor substrate. The device includes a second dielectric layer disposed over the first dielectric layer. The device includes a color filter layer disposed over the second dielectric layer. In some embodiments, the thickness, refractive index, or both of the first dielectric layer and the thickness, refractive index, or both of the second dielectric layer may be collectively determined to cause incident radiation passing through the first dielectric layer and the second dielectric layer and to the plurality of pixels to have destructive interference.
