  • Method of forming a filter for a solid-state image sensing device
    Patent number: 5970317
    Abstract: In a method of forming a color filter for use in a solid-state image sensing device forming a color filter made of a resist material on a planarized layer made of a thermosetting resin formed on the surface of a solid-state image sensing device, a temperature for the heat treatment upon forming the color filter is defined as equal to or higher than 205.degree. C. and less than 220.degree. C., so that occurrence of micro-cracks in the planarized layer made of the thermosetting resin can be prevented.
