  • DEEPLY BURIED COLOR FILTER ARRAY (CFA) BY STACKED GRID STRUCTURE
    Publication number: 20160307942
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a BSI image sensor having a color filter disposed between sidewalls of a metallic grid, and a method of formation. In some embodiments, the BSI image sensor has a pixel sensor located within a semiconductor substrate, and a layer of dielectric material overlying the pixel sensor. A metallic grid is separated from the semiconductor substrate by the layer of dielectric material, and a stacked grid is arranged over the metallic grid. The stacked grid abuts an opening that vertically extends from an upper surface of the stacked grid to a position that is laterally arranged between sidewalls of the metallic grid. A color filter can be arranged within the opening. By having the color filter vertically extend between sidewalls of the metallic grid, a distance between the color filter and the pixel sensor can be made small, thereby improving performance of the BSI image sensor.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) and a base station may establish a communication link over a carrier including multiple narrowband regions. One or both of the devices may determine a subframe availability associated with each of the narrowband regions and may communicate on one or more of the regions according to the availability. In some cases, the availability may depend on a channel configuration, such as the presence of reference signals (e.g., positioning reference signals (PRS) or discovery reference singles (DRS)) covering a portion of the overall bandwidth of the carrier. In some cases, transmission time interval (TTI) bundling or frequency hopping may depend on the subframe availability.
