  • Patent number: 5929432
    Abstract: In this solid-state image sensing device, pixel sensors for detecting ordinary color image and a pixel sensor for detecting infrared rays recorded as invisible information are formed on the same substrate. A near-infrared ray transmission filter for detection of near-infrared rays is formed with a stacked body of red filter and blue filter. This solid image sensing device can be applied to both the linear sensor and the area sensor. In addition, there is also provided an image sensor in which the light source, the optical system and the scanning system are combined with such a solid-state image sensing device.
