Abstract

See full text

A front-side-interconnect (FSI) red-green-blue-infrared (RGB-IR) photosensor array has photosensors of a first type with a diffused N-type region in a P-type well, the P-type well diffused into a high resistivity semiconductor layer; photosensors of a second type, with a deeper diffused N-type region in a P-type well, the P-type well; and photosensors of a third type with a diffused N-type region diffused into the high resistivity semiconductor layer underlying all of the other types of photosensors. In embodiments, photosensors of a fourth type have a diffused N-type region in a P-type well, the N-type region deeper than the N-type region of photosensors of the first and second types.
