A backside illuminated imaging sensor includes a semiconductor substrate, a metal interconnect layer and a light attenuating layer. The semiconductor substrate has a front surface, a back surface, and includes at least one imaging pixel formed on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate. The metal interconnect layer is electrically coupled to the imaging pixel and the light attenuating layer is coupled between the metal interconnect layer and the front surface of the semiconductor substrate. In operation, the imaging pixel receives light from the back surface of the semiconductor substrate, where a portion of the received light propagates through the imaging pixel to the light attenuating layer. The light attenuating layer is configured to substantially attenuate the portion of light received from the imaging pixel.
