Abstract:
An image sensor may include a substrate which includes a plurality of block regions. Each block region may include a separate plurality of pixel regions. Each pixel region may include a separate photoelectric element of a plurality of photoelectric elements in the substrate and a separate micro lens of a plurality of micro lenses on the substrate. Each micro lens of the plurality of micro lenses may be laterally offset from a vertical centerline of the pixel region towards a center of the block region. Each block region of the plurality of block regions may include a common shifted shape of the plurality of micro lenses of the block region.

Claim (Index 12):
An image sensor, comprising:\n a substrate, the substrate including a first block region and a second block region, the first block region including a first pixel region and a second pixel region, and the second block region including a third pixel region and a fourth pixel region, the first through fourth pixel regions including\n first to fourth photoelectric elements in separate, respective pixel regions of the first to fourth pixel regions; and \n first to fourth micro lenses on separate, respective pixel regions of the first to fourth pixel regions, \n wherein\n a distance between a vertical centerline of the first pixel region and a center of the first block region is a first distance, \n a distance between a vertical centerline of the second pixel region and the center of the first block region is a second distance, \n a distance between a vertical centerline of the third pixel region and a center of the second block region is the first distance, \n a distance between a vertical centerline of the fourth pixel region and the center of the second block region is the second distance, \n the first micro lens is laterally offset from the vertical centerline of the first pixel region by a first interval towards the center of the first block region, the second micro lens is laterally offset from the vertical centerline of the second pixel region by a second interval towards the center of the first block region by a second internal, the third micro lens is laterally offset from the vertical centerline of the third pixel region by the first interval towards the center of the second block region, and the fourth micro lens is laterally offset from the vertical centerline of the fourth pixel region by the second interval towards the center of the second block region.
