Abstract:
An image sensor includes a two-dimensional array of image sensor pixels, which are formed in a semiconductor layer. Each image sensor pixel is formed in a substrate having a corresponding semiconductor region therein. Each semiconductor region contains at least first and second photoelectric conversion elements, which are disposed at side-by-side locations therein. An electrically insulating isolation region is also provided, which extends at least partially through the semiconductor region and at least partially between the first and second photoelectric conversion elements, which may be configured respectively as first and second semiconductor regions of first conductivity type (e.g., N-type). At least one optically reflective region is also provided, which extends at least partially through the semiconductor region and surrounds at least a portion of at least one of the first and second photoelectric conversion elements. A semiconductor floating diffusion (FD) region (e.g., N-type region) is provided within the semiconductor region.

Claim (Index 16):
The image sensor of  claim 11 , further comprising a micro-lens on a light receiving surface of the substrate,\n wherein the micro-lens vertically overlaps with the at least two the photoelectric conversion elements and the second isolation layer.
