Abstract:
Provided is a super-resolution image sensor and a producing method thereof such that, on the basis of not changing the arrangement of the image sensitive unit array of the image sensor, by means of the existing micro-lens manufacture techniques, the imaging resolution can be increased by offsetting micro-lens rows in a micro-lens array that covers upon the image sensitive unit array. In some examples, a super-resolution image sensor comprises an image sensitive unit array having image sensitive unit rows aligned with one another, and a micro-lens array covering upon the image sensitive unit array. Relative to a reference micro-lens row in the micro-lens array, the other micro-lens rows are regularly offset. Each micro-lens unit in the reference micro-lens row is center aligned with a corresponding image sensitive unit in a reference image sensitive unit row.
