Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor image sensing, in particular to a 3D global pixel unit and a preparation method thereof. Background technique
[0002] Traditional global shutter pixel technology is mainly used in CCD image sensors. Due to the increasing popularity of CMOS image sensors, and because machine vision, film production, industrial, automotive, and scanning applications must capture fast-moving objects with high Traditional barriers associated with shutter pixel technology. With this effort, the provided global shutter pixel technology has smaller pixel size, larger fill factor, lower dark current, and lower noise, making CMOS image sensors the preferred choice for CCD sensors in more applications. Viable alternatives.
[0003] In the global pixel unit of a conventional CMOS image sensor, the photosensitive diode and the signal storage and readout circuit unit devices are all made in the same plane. The stora...
