Abstract:
An image sensor pixel structure including: a photosensitive area surrounded with a peripheral area placed at the surface of a semiconductor substrate, a stack of several insulating layers alternately exhibiting different refraction coefficients and placed above the peripheral area, a microlens placed at the top of the pixel to have the pixel light converge towards the photosensitive area, and a transparent block placed substantially above the photosensitive area.
