    Abstract: An image sensor includes a photoelectric conversion layer, a plurality of deep trench isolations, a first color filter, a first deflector, and a covering layer. The photoelectric conversion layer includes a first photodiode and a second photodiode. The deep trench isolations separate the first photodiode and the second photodiode, in which a pixel dimension is determined by a distance between two adjacent deep trench isolations. The first color filter is disposed on the first photodiode and the second photodiode. The first deflector is disposed on the first color filter. The covering layer covers and surrounds the first deflector. A refractive index of the covering layer is greater than a refractive index of the first deflector, and a difference value between the refractive index of the covering layer and the refractive index of the first deflector is in a range from 0.15 to 0.6.
