Abstract:
A multi-color HDR image sensor includes at least a first combination color pixel with a first color filter and an adjacent second combination color pixel with a second color filter which is different from the first color filter, wherein each combination color pixel includes at least two sub-pixels having at least two adjacent photodiodes. Within each combination color pixel, there is a dielectric deep trench isolation (d-DTI) structure to isolate the two adjacent photodiodes of the two adjacent sub-pixels with same color filters in order to prevent the electrical cross talk. Between two adjacent combination color pixels with different color filters, there is a hybrid deep trench isolation (h-DTI) structure to isolate two adjacent photodiodes of two adjacent sub-pixels with different color filters in order to prevent both optical and electrical cross talk. Each combination color pixel is enclosed on all sides by the hybrid deep trench isolation (h-DTI) structure.

Claim (Index 4):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the metal tapers from the first side of the semiconductor material towards the deep portion of the second trench structure such that a ray of off-axis incident light propagates through the first side of the semiconductor material and is reflected by the metal towards one of the first and second photo sensitive elements.
