METHOD FOR PRODUCING A PHOTODIODE CONTACT FOR A TFA IMAGE SENSOR

摘要

The invention relates to a method for producing a photodiode contact for a TFA image sensor which comprises a photodiode, produced by deposition of a multilayer system and a transparent conductive contact layer (13) on an ASIC circuit that has been coated with an intermediate metal dielectric component and that has vias (7) in a photoactive zone (2) which are arranged in a pixel grid. Said vias extend through the intermediate metal dielectric component (5) and are linked with respective strip conductors (8) of the CMOS-ASIC circuit. A pixel-grid structured barrier layer (6), and on top thereof a CMOS metallization (3), are arranged on the intermediate metal dielectric component (5). The aim of the invention is to improve the characteristic variables of the photodiode by simple technological means. This aim is achieved by removing at least the CMOS metallization (3) present on the CMOS-ASIC circuit (1) in the area of the photoactive zone except for the structured barrier layer (6) and subsequently applying the multilayer system of the photodiode (12) and the conductive transparent contact layer (13) to the CMOS-ASIC circuit (1).
