Abstract:
An image sensor device includes a semiconductor substrate, including an array of pixel circuits, which define respective pixels of the device. A photosensitive layer is formed over the semiconductor substrate and configured to transfer charge to the pixel circuits in response to light incident on the photosensitive layer. An upper layer is formed over the photosensitive layer and is at least partially transparent to the light. Opaque partitions extend vertically through the upper layer in a checkerboard pattern aligned with the pixels in the array.

Claim (Index 11):
A method for producing an image sensor device, the method comprising:\n forming an array of pixel circuits, which define respective pixels of the device, on a semiconductor substrate; depositing over the semiconductor substrate a photosensitive layer configured to transfer charge to the pixel circuits in response to light incident on the photosensitive layer; depositing over the photosensitive layer an upper layer that is at least partially transparent to the light; and forming opaque partitions extending vertically through the upper layer in a checkerboard pattern aligned with the pixels in the array.
