Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards an image sensor having a semiconductor substrate comprising a front-side surface opposite a back-side surface. A plurality of photodetectors is disposed in the semiconductor substrate. An isolation structure extends into the back-side surface of the semiconductor substrate and is disposed between adjacent photodetectors. The isolation structure includes a metal core, a conductive liner disposed between the semiconductor substrate and the metal core, and a first dielectric liner disposed between the conductive liner and the semiconductor substrate. The metal core comprises a first metal material and the conductive liner comprises the first metal material and a second metal material different from the first metal material.

Abstract: A portable electronic device is provided. The portable electronic device includes a host, a power adapter and a signal transmission interface. The host generates state information according to present operating state, and the power adapter is used to provide a voltage to the host. The power adapter receives the state information of the host via the signal transmission interface, and adjusts the output voltage according to the state information. By transmitting information between the host and the power adapter, the power adapter can be adjusted according to the operating state of the host. Moreover, the host can adjust the operating state according to the specification information of the power adapter. Consequently, the power consuming of the portable electronic device has best efficiency thus to reduce carbon emission.
