Abstract:
An image sensor includes an array of photo-sensing regions formed in a semiconductor substrate, a dielectric layer over the array of photo-sensing regions, and an array of microlenses formed in the dielectric layer. Each of the microlenses is center-aligned over one of the photo-sensing regions and has a truncated plano-convex shape. The microlenses have an index of refraction that is higher than the dielectric layer's refraction index. Each of the microlenses has a smooth circular top, a flat circular bottom, and a curved circumferential side convex towards the semiconductor substrate.
