Abstract

The invention provides a back-illuminated CMOS image sensor and a manufacturing method thereof. The structure such as a bonding pad can be formed through the application of four photomasks, so that the application of the photomasks is reduced; and furthermore, a formed metal gridding is connected with the bonding pad, and comprises a first metal wire positioned in a first isolation groove, a second metal wire positioned in a second isolation groove, and a third metal wire for connecting the bonding pad, the first metal wire and the second metal wire, so that incident light can be preferably limited through the metal gridding, the appearance of crosstalk is avoided, and the quality of the back-illuminated CMOS image sensor is improved. Further, negative pressure is applied onto the bonding pad, so that the negative pressure is also applied onto the metal gridding connected with the bonding pad, namely the negative pressure is applied on a first isolation structure formed in the first isolation groove and a second isolation structure formed in the second isolation groove, and the generation of noisy points and dark current can be inhibited through the negative pressure applied onto the first isolation structure and the second isolation structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of image sensor manufacturing, in particular to a back-illuminated CMOS image sensor and a manufacturing 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 an 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 ...
