Large CMOS image sensor pixel with improved performance
摘要
An image sensor pixel includes a photosensitive element having a first doping type disposed in semiconductor material. A deep extension having the first doping type is disposed beneath and overlapping the photosensitive element in the semiconductor material. A floating diffusion is disposed in the semiconductor material. A transfer gate is disposed over a gate oxide that is disposed over the semiconductor material. The transfer gate is disposed between the photosensitive element and the floating diffusion. The photosensitive element and the deep extension are stacked in the semiconductor material in a "U" shape extending from under the transfer gate.
