Abstract: A charge coupled device image sensor which can prevent smear and improve sensitivity, including a substrate of a first conductive type, a first well of a second conductive type formed on one side of said substrate, a second well of the second conductive type formed on the other side of said substrate, a pair of photo-detecting areas formed adjoining in said first well, a pair of charge transfer areas formed close to each photo-detecting area and adjoining in said second well, a channel stop area formed between said adjoining photo-detecting areas and said charge transfer areas and for isolating each of the areas,.

Abstract: A solid state image sensing element including a substrate, photodiode areas each having a plurality of photodiodes in matrix array formed on the substrate, a flat area formed over the substrate including the photodiode areas, color filter layers formed in predetermined areas on the flat area, a top coating layer formed in predetermined areas on the flat area, a top coating layer formed over the substrate including the color filter areas, stripe microlenses each having a flat upper surface arranged to correspond to the photodiodes arranged in one direction in the photodiode areas and formed on the top coating layer, and mosaic microlenses formed on the flat upper surface of the stripe microlens each arranged corresponding to each of the photodiodes in the photodiode area.
