Abstract:
A BSI image sensor includes a substrate including a front side and a back side opposite to the front side, and a plurality of pixel sensors arranged in an array. Each of the pixel sensors includes a photo-sensing device in the substrate, a color filter over the pixel sensor on the back side, and an optical structure over the color filter on the back side. The optical structure includes a first sidewall, and the first sidewall and a plane substantially parallel with a front surface of the substrate form an included angel greater than 0°.

Claim (Index 17):
A back side illumination (BSI) image sensor comprising:\n a substrate comprising a front side and a back side opposite to the front side; a pixel sensor in the substrate; a color filter over the substrate on the back side; a plurality of micro-lenses over the color filter, wherein a bottom area of each of the micro-lenses is less than a top area of the color filter, a sum of the bottom areas of the plurality of micro-lenses is greater than the top area of the color filter, and each micro-lens overlaps a portion of the color filter.
