Electronic device comprising electrical contact pads

摘要

An electronic device and a method of fabricating the same are provided. The electronic device includes: a photodiode layer; a wiring layer formed on the first surface of the photodiode layer; a plurality of electrical contact pads formed on the wiring layer; a passivation layer formed on the wiring layer and the electrical contact pads; an antireflective layer formed on the second surface of the photodiode layer; a color filter layer formed on the antireflective layer; a dielectric layer formed on the antireflective layer and the color filter layer; and a microlens layer formed on the dielectric layer, allowing the color filter layer, the dielectric layer and the microlens layer to define an active region within which the electrical contact pads are positioned. As the electrical contact pads are positioned within the active region, an area of the substrate used for an inactive region can be eliminated.

1. An electronic device, comprising:
a photodiode layer having corresponding first and second surfaces; a wiring layer formed on the first surface of the photodiode layer and comprising a dielectric body formed on the photodiode layer, a plurality of wires spaced apart from each other in the dielectric body and disposed in a special arrangement, and a plurality of transfer gates disposed in the dielectric body at positions proximate to the photodiode layer; a plurality of electrical contact pads formed on the wiring layer and electrically connected to the wiring layer; a passivation layer formed on the wiring layer and the electrical contact pads, wherein the electrical contact pads penetrate through the passivation layer without penetrating into the dielectric body of the wiring layer; an antireflective layer formed on the second surface of the photodiode layer; a color filter layer formed on the antireflective layer; a dielectric layer formed on the antireflective layer and the color filter layer; and a microlens layer formed on the dielectric layer, allowing the color filter layer, the dielectric layer and the microlens layer to define an active region within which the electrical contact pads are positioned.
