  • Patent number: 11929381
    Abstract: An image sensor including: a substrate which includes a first surface and a second surface opposite each other; a plurality of pixels, each pixel including a photoelectric conversion layer in the substrate; a pixel separation pattern disposed in the substrate and separating the pixels; a surface insulating layer disposed on the first surface of the substrate; conductor contacts disposed in the surface insulating layer; and a grid pattern disposed on the surface insulating layer, wherein the pixel separation pattern includes a first portion and a second portion arranged in a direction parallel to the first surface of the substrate, and the conductor contacts are interposed between the first portion of the pixel separation pattern and the grid pattern and are not interposed between the second portion of the pixel separation pattern and the grid pattern.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10797099
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an image sensor and a method of manufacturing the same. An image sensor includes a first substrate, a barrier structure, a first structure, a second substrate, and a second structure. The first substrate includes a device region in which unit pixels are disposed and a first residual scribe lane region surrounding the device region. The first substrate has a first surface and a second surface. The barrier structure penetrates the first substrate in the first residual scribe lane region. The first surface of the first substrate is on the first structure. The second substrate includes a second residual scribe lane region facing the first residual scribe lane region. The second substrate has a front surface and a rear surface. The second structure is on the front surface of the second substrate and faces the first surface of the first substrate. The second structure is bonded to the first structure.
