    摘要: The present invention provides an infrared detector pixel structure and manufacturing method thereof. The bottom portion of a silicon substrate is bonded with a bonding substrate, an infrared absorbing layer in the bonding substrate is used for absorbing a part of infrared light, a closed cavity filled with infrared-sensitive gas is set in the silicon substrate, and a piezoelectric transforming unit is bonded onto the closed cavity. When the infrared-sensitive gas absorbs the infrared light to expand, the infrared sensitive gas will press the piezoelectric transforming unit, which causes piezoelectric signal generated by the piezoelectric transforming unit to be changed, thereby achieving the detection on the infrared light.

    摘要: A MEMS microphone structure, comprising a semiconductor substrate having a cavity, a first dielectric layer having a through-hole communicating with the cavity, a lower diaphragm electrode formed above the through-hole and at least partially attached to the upper surface of the first dielectric layer, and an upper electrode structure with an insulating layer. The upper electrode structure comprises an annular supporter, a back plate having multiple holes, and an upper electrode connection. At least a part of the annular supporter extends downwardly to the lower diaphragm electrode while the rest of the annular supporter extends downwardly to the substrate. The back plate is suspended above the lower diaphragm electrode by the annular supporter, forming an air gap therebetween. An upper electrode is embedded in the insulating layer at the back plate and is lead out by the upper electrode connection.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to an image sensor structure and a manufacturing method thereof. A detection structure layer and a blind pixel structure layer are used. The detection structure layer and the blind pixel structure layer are effectively combined and further formed by ion implantation. Thus, the space ratio of a single pixel is reduced, the integration and device sensitivity are improved, and the blind pixel array and the pixel array are also in the same environment, thereby further improving the detection sensitivity and reducing the detection error.

    摘要: A pixel structure of a CMOS image sensor pixel structure and a manufacturing method thereof. The structure comprises a photosensitive element (37) and a multi-layer structure of a standard CMOS device arranged on the silicon substrate (31). A deep groove (38) having a light-transmitting space therein is formed above the photosensitive element, a side wall of the deep groove is surrounded by a light reflection shielding layer (39) continuously arranged in a longitudinal direction to reflect the light incident on the light reflection shielding layer. The side wall of the deep groove is surrounded by metal interconnects, vias, contact holes and polysilicon in annular configurations, thus the incident light on the deep grove is substantially completely reflected, which avoids the optical crosstalk and effectively improves the optical resolution and sensitivity of the pixel and the performance and reliability of the chip.
