Problems solved by technology

[0002] Currently, in complementary metal oxide semiconductor (Complemerntary metal oxide semiconductor, CMOS) image sensors, commonly used color filter arrays (Color Filter Array, CFA) include RGB Bayer (Bayer) arrays, CMY (cyan magenta yellow) arrays, RGBW (red-green-blue-white) array and RYYB (red-yellow-blue) array, however, the RGB Bayer array has low sensitivity, and the brightness value of the generated image is low, while other color filter arrays, although the amount of incoming light has been increased, but due to The number of RGB effective pixels is limited, the accuracy of color reproduction is poor, and the image clarity is also poor
[0003] In addition, the image sensor also includes PD (Phase Detect, phase) pixels for focusing, such as semi-shielded PD and Dual PD, but the existing PD pixels can only achieve phase focusing in a single direction, and the focusing ability is poor
