Abstract

The invention provides a back-illuminated CMOS image sensor and a formation method thereof. The back-illuminated CMOS image sensor includes a front-end structure with a photodiode as well as an auxiliary structure and a dielectric layer which are located at the front surface of the front-end structure, wherein the auxiliary structure is surrounded by the front-end structure and the dielectric layer, and the refraction rate of the auxiliary structure is lower than the refraction rates of the front-end structure and the dielectric layer. With the back-illuminated CMOS image sensor of the invention adopted, after incident light passes through the photodiode, parts of the incident light, which are subjected to total reflection, are increased, and can enter the photodiode again, and therefore, photons absorbed by the photodiode can be effectively increased, and quantum conversion efficiency can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of imaging, in particular to a back-illuminated CMOS image sensor and a forming method thereof. Background technique [0002] The image sensor is developed on the basis of photoelectric technology. The so-called image sensor is a sensor that can sense optical image information and convert it into a usable output signal. Image sensors can improve the visual range of the human eye, enabling people to see the microcosm and macrocosm that cannot be seen by the naked eye, see what happens in places that people cannot reach temporarily, and see various physical and chemical changes beyond the visual range of the naked eye. Life, physiology, the occurrence and development of disease, and so on. It can be seen that image sensors play a very important role in people's culture, sports, production, life and scientific research. It can be said that modern human activities can no longer be separated from image sensors. [0003]...
