Abstract: An image sensor includes a first active region including a first floating diffusion region, a first transistor active region, and a first isolation structure for electrically isolating the first floating diffusion region from the first transistor active region, wherein the first isolation structure comprises a first P-type doped region disposed on one corner of the first active region and a second P-type doped region disposed in a center of the first active region, the first P-typed doped region and the second P-type doped region being electrically coupled to each other.

Abstract: An image sensor is provided to include an active region which comprises: a floating diffusion region; a transfer transistor gate region; transistor active regions; and a well-tap region. The transfer transistor gate region may have a diagonal bar shape to isolate the floating diffusion region in a first corner of the active region. The well-tap region may be positioned between the transfer transistor gate region and the transistor active regions, and isolate the transfer transistor gate region from the transistor active regions.

Abstract: An image sensor may include a photosensing region in a substrate and configured to generate photoelectrons in response to an incident light on the photodiode region, conductive bias patterns disposed to be spaced apart from one another and surrounding the photosensing region, and pixel isolation patterns that are spaced apart from and disposed in a periphery of the conductive bias patterns.

Abstract: An image sensor is disclosed. The image sensor may include a photosensing region in a substrate and configured to generate photoelectrons in response to incident light on the photosensing region; bias patterns arranged to surround the photosensing region and including a conductive material; a floating diffusion region at a center of the photosensing region to store photoelectrons generated by the photosensing region; and transfer gates that partially overlap with the floating diffusion region and are operable to transfer photoelectrons generated by the photosensing region to the floating diffusion region. The photosensing region and the bias patterns are electrically isolated from one another.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of preparing a highly sinterable calcium phosphate-based ceramic powder and a compact thereof. The calcium phosphate-based ceramic powder and compact thereof according to the present invention are advantageous in that they are very biocompatible and economical because they are prepared using natural materials, have nano-sized particles, and are highly sinterable, and thus can be used for bone substitute materials.
