Description

A kind of curved surface cmos image sensor camera module
Technical field
The present invention relates to integrated circuit fields, more particularly, to a kind of song for improving light sensitivity and simplifying main lens Face cmos image sensor camera module.
Background technology
Cmos image sensor camera module under prior art includes two big parts:Cmos image sensor and Main lens.
Imaging sensor is the device for converting optical signals to electric signal, DTV, face-to-face communication etc. be civilian and business It has been widely used in industry category.According to the difference of photoelectric conversion mode, imaging sensor can be generally divided into electric charge Coupled device image sensor (Charge-coupled Device, CCD) and cmos image sensor (CMOS IMAGE SENSOR, CIS) two classes.
For CCD, on the one hand, scientific research and industrial circle in specialty, the CCD with high s/n ratio turn into first choice; On the other hand, also quite favored in high-end photography and vedio recording field, the CCD that high image quality can be provided.And for CIS, IP Camera and mobile phone photograph module are also widely applied.
CCD is compared with CIS, and the former power consumption is higher, integrated difficulty is larger, and the latter is low in energy consumption, easy of integration and resolution ratio compared with It is high.Although CCD may be better than CIS in terms of picture quality, still, as the continuous improvement of CIS technologies and CMOS manufacture Technological level is substantially improved, the CCD of a part of CIS picture quality already close to same specification.CIS takes in performance Substantial progress, and by its low cost, high efficiency, transmission speed soon etc. advantage be widely used in tablet personal computer, intelligence All kinds of emerging fields such as mobile phone.Along with promotion of the field of consumer electronics such as camera cell phone to CIS, following cmos image passes The market prospects of sensor will be more wide.One of small size, high-performance CIS important topic for being designed to this area research.
Intuitively performance indications are exactly reproduction ability to image to imaging sensor one, and the pixel battle array of imaging sensor Row are exactly the critical function module for being directly connected to this index.In the prior art, the pel array in CIS, which uses, source image Plain sensor (Active Pixel Sensor, APS) is used as its photosensitive unit.One APS (i.e. a pixel cell) includes one Individual light sensitive diode (Photo Diode, PD) and an activated amplifier (Active Amplifier).Pel array can be divided into Front illuminated formula (Front Side Illuminated, FSI) pel array and back-illuminated type (Back Side Illuminated, BSI) pel array.
Referring to Fig. 1, the structural profile that Fig. 1 is a kind of FSI pel arrays of cmos image sensor of prior art shows It is intended to.As shown in figure 1, from section, pel array is divided into three flat beds of upper, middle and lower substantially, and upper strata is filter layer 6, for putting Put lenticule (Micro-lens) 5 and the color filter (Color Filter) 4.Each lenticule 5 is a convex lens, for pair Incident light is focused;The color filter 4 is generally arranged to make up color filter array by Bayer pattern.The lower section of filter layer 6 corresponding one Optical channel 3, the optical channel 2 and PD1 of photosensitive layer (also known as PD layers) 9 of individual metal level 7.Middle level is metal level 7, and matrix is silica Material, multi-layer metal wiring 8 (being illustrated as 4 layers) is placed with, and circuit structure is formed with electric connection mode, for transmitting telecommunications Number, the space between adjacent metal wiring forms optical channel 3, and incident light can pass through PD1 from this optical channel 3.Lower floor is PD Layer 9, host material is silicon, and for placing PD1, the optical channel 2 of PD layers 9 is connected and is aligned with the optical channel 3 of metal level 7.It is micro- Mirror 5 is used for assembling light, and incident light (hollow arrow is signified in such as figure) sequentially enters metal level optical channel 3, PD by filter layer 6 Layer optical channel 2 reaches the PD1 of lower floor, and PD1 meets photon and photoelectric effect occurs, then spreads out of electric signal, the face in digital processing flow The RAW data converts that color interpolation algorithm collects PD are coloured image.In the structure of FSI pel arrays, when incident light leads to When crossing optical channel, because metal level therein has a plurality of layers metal line, some light will be reflected (filled arrows in such as figure It is signified) so that light intensity incurs loss, and causes image quality to be affected.
Referring to Fig. 2, the structural profile that Fig. 2 is a kind of BSI pel arrays of cmos image sensor of prior art shows It is intended to.As shown in Fig. 2 unlike FSI pel arrays, in the structure of BSI pel arrays, filter is followed successively by from top to bottom 16 3 layer 14, PD layers 15, metal level flat beds, metal level 16 are located at the lower section of PD layers 15.Filter layer 14 is used for placing lenticule 13 and the color filter 12, each lenticule 13 be a convex lens, below correspond to a PD layer 15 optical channel 11 and PD10. Incident light (hollow arrow is signified in such as figure) will only need to directly reach PD10 by the optical channel 11 of PD layers 15, without passing through gold Belong to layer 16, shorten optical channel.Therefore, the reflection of incident light and metal level 16 will not occur in the structure of BSI pel arrays Effect.Simultaneously as optical channel need not because of metal level 16 metal line 17 and manoeuvring space, make between adjacent pixel away from From can suitably shorten.The problem of BSI picture element array structures, is, compared to FSI pel arrays, although can be led to by the light of shortening Road improves the light sensitivity of its pel array, but after the distance between adjacent pixel excessively shortens, the crosstalk between pixel (crosstalk) (filled arrows are signified in such as figure) is will be apparent, causes the discolouration phenomena of coloured image.
When CIS is applied to field of photography, when camera module is designed, except that need to consider imaging sensor in itself Outside performance, it is also contemplated that the performance of the shooting main lens of its matching.Except in the application scenario of some lens changeables, such as number The fields such as single anti-, high-definition digital film, the design objective of more occasions is imaging sensor of the requirement using a fixed dimension Matched with the main lens of a fixed specification, so as to obtain optimal overall performance.
Referring to Fig. 3, Fig. 3 is the comparison schematic diagram of opthalmic optics' structure and camera optical texture.As shown in figure 3, figure Middle top half illustrates the optical texture and image-forming principle of human eye:The eyeball 19 that the reflection light on the surface of object 21 passes through people Crystalline lens 20 reflects, and converges to the image forming surface of retina 18 of the distal end of eyeball 19.The latter half illustrates camera in figure Optical texture and image-forming principle:The reflection light on the surface of object 21 is reflected by the main lens 23 of optical texture, is converged to CIS22 surfaces, form digital picture.Compare the two imaging systems, it can be found that three differences:First, the view of human eye Film 18 is spherical concave curved surface, and CIS22 is rectangle plane (refer to Fig. 1, Fig. 2);Secondly, 20 1 mirrors of human eye Phakic Piece, and the lens group that the main lens 23 of camera are made up of some eyeglasses (being illustrated as 6);Again, it is if human eye is crystalline The primary mirror of camera system is contrasted as the flange focal distance fa for being human eye, this flange focal distance fa in the rear end of body 20 to the distance of retina 18 First 23 flange focal distance fb want it is short a lot.
Referring to Fig. 4, Fig. 4 is a kind of structural profile signal of cmos image sensor camera module of the prior art Figure.As shown in figure 4, camera module is by a main lens 31 and a cmos image sensor 24 (by taking FSI pel arrays as an example) Composition.Main lens 31 design for typical double gauss, (contain spherical aberration correction mirror in lens group for the lens group with 6 eyeglasses Piece).Cmos image sensor 24 designs for FSI, and its structure type is identical with the structure of the FSI pel arrays in Fig. 1, same tool There are filter layer 32, metal level 33 and a photosensitive layer 34, metal level 33 is placed with multi-layer metal wiring 28, therefore not reinflated repetition herein Explanation.The filter layer 32 of cmos image sensor 24 is oppositely arranged and coupled with 1 convex lens of the bottom of main lens 31.Primary mirror First 31 flange focal distance fc be the distance of 24 upper surface of pel array filter layer 32 from lens group bottom to sensor (i.e. etc. It is same as the flange focal distance fb of main lens 23 signified in Fig. 3).From (the hollow arrow in such as figure of incident ray derived from main lens 31 It is signified), optical axis (vertical center line of main lens is signified in such as figure) is completely parallel at optical center, at lens edge then It is gradually at a certain angle towards optical axis direction shape.Because incident ray passes through the He of lenticule 30 of cmos image sensor 24 After the color filter 29, to pass through long and narrow metal level optical channel 27, photosensitive layer optical channel 26 could cause the PD25 of photosensitive layer to feel Light so that the probability reflected with incident light that optical axis has certain angle is larger, thus one can be lost at image border Fixed light intensity.The whole height H of this camera lens module is topmost to the distance of the lower surface of pel array photosensitive layer 34 from lens group. It can be seen that lens group occupies most height space in whole camera lens module, it appears very huge.
As shown in figure 4, when cmos image sensor 24 is coupled with the lens group of main lens 31, just occur one Individual problem, that is, the image quality of picture centre will be far better than the part of image border.Its major reason is precisely due to FSI More long and narrow optical channel 27,26 in pel array so that it is photosensitive that the more inclined light of incidence angle can not arrive at PD25 progress. Compared with FSI pel arrays, BSI pel arrays are in the outside (lower section) of photosensitive layer, therefore the light for passing through shortening because of metal level Passage can improve the lightsensitivity of its pel array.However, BSI still can not thoroughly solve to respond during Ray obliquity incidence it is poor Problem.
In view of the above-mentioned problems, the solution under prior art substantially has two kinds:A kind of light for being to try to optimize lens group Learn design so that light is as far as possible incident image sensor in a perpendicular direction from center to edge derived from camera lens;The Two kinds are to use digital means, and the light attenuation of image border is compensated in image processing stage.Both schemes, the former The portability of system is sacrificed significantly, and the latter can only also compensate, it is impossible to really while increase calculates cost to brightness Play a part of improving picture quality.

The lower end of each optical fiber 54 is coupled to corresponding PD51, and is tightly engaged into PD51.Binder can be used and other are existing Applicable pattern ensure that optical fiber 54 and PD51 are mutually closely sealed and connect.The upper end of optical fiber 54 is bent from the spill of photosensitive layer 56 The surface of face 53 is exposed, and the inner couplings in the end of optical fiber 54 have 1 the color filter 55;Then, the upper end end of each optical fiber 54 Face is together with the upper surface of the color filter 55 to be coupled to the main lens perpendicular to the state on the surface of the second convex lens 43 The convex surface of 46 the second convex lens of bottom 43, and be tightly engaged into the convex surface of second convex lens 43.Each optical fiber 54 with The end face of second convex lens 43 coupling is evenly distributed on the convex surface of second convex lens 43.Optical fiber 54 and the color filter 55 it Between and can be coupled by the way of (Fuse) is for example merged between the convex surface of second convex lens 43, may be used also if necessary Using index matching glue lifting fusion performance;Or it is coupled using binder and other existing applicable patterns. When optical fiber 54 is inserted into the alignment in optical channel 52 and when being coupled with the second convex lens 43, it can use for example freely empty Between coupling technique (Free Space Coupling), optical fiber 54 is put into light using micro-control position table (its motor stepping is minimum) Passage 52 is simultaneously alignd with the position of optical channel;Also, optical fiber and arbitrary surface can be spelled using what the technology had The advantage connect, optical fiber 54 and the second convex lens 43 can be attached well.
As another implementation of the present embodiment, the color filter can optical fiber upper end close to the inside of end with Optical fiber is coupled, and then, then the upper end end face of optical fiber is equably coupled with plumbness with the second convex lens.By such a side Formula, there will be certain gap between the color filter and the second convex lens.In addition, also a kind of mode is, by the upper end of optical fiber End coupling is carried out with the color filter, then, then the color filter is coupled with the second convex lens.That is, optical fiber is to pass through The color filter is with plumbness uniformly coupled to the second convex lens.
In the present embodiment, the color filter array for the CIS pel arrays that the present invention discusses is (i.e. by whole the color filters 55 The color filter array of composition) also use Bayer pattern, the corresponding PD51 of a color filter 55 of each color.Numeral The RAW data converts that PD51 is collected can be coloured image by the color interpolation algorithm in handling process.
The present invention makes the actual shape of light path of incident light by setting optical fiber in the optical channel of CIS pel array photosensitive layers Into in optical fiber, can not only making derived from main lens incident light not lose light intensity in the path for reaching photosensitive layer, moreover, Using the shielding action of optical fiber, it can effectively suppress existing crosstalk phenomenon between pixel cell.
Please continue to refer to Fig. 6.The concave curvatures 53 of the sensor 49 have with the convex surface of the second convex lens 43 (i.e. The opposite face of the main lens 46 and the concave curvatures 53) different curvature, i.e., the shape and primary mirror of described concave curvatures 53 The convex shape Incomplete matching of first 46 the second convex lens 43.Therefore, both described convex lens 43 of concave curvatures 53 and second Between leave spacing, this spacing is the flange focal distance fe of the main lens 46.Curved surface cmos image of the invention in Fig. 6 is passed The camera module of sensor camera module and the planar shaped cmos image sensor of prior art in Fig. 4 (has the primary mirror of 6 eyeglasses Head) compare, present invention eliminates filter layer, it is corresponding with main lens that photosensitive layer surface is designed as concave curvatures, as incidence The plane of incidence of light, and optical fiber is coupled with the color filter, main lens are in turn coupled to, lenticule is instead of using main lens;And And eyeglass number is set to be reduced to 3 as main lens by using the double Gauss lens without spherical aberration correction mirror.Therefore, it is of the invention The flange focal distance fe of camera module main lens 46 is much smaller than the main lens flange focal distance fc of prior art, camera module of the present invention Whole height hb almost shortens the height of half also much smaller than the whole height H of the camera module of prior art.
In the present embodiment, the present invention simulates the photosensitive layer upper surface of pel array the retina design concavity of human eye Curve form is corresponding with main lens, conducts incident light, Jiang Geguang using the optical fiber rather than optical channel that are coupled with the color filter Fine end face couples in a vertical direction with primary mirror head surface, and is uniformly distributed in primary mirror head surface.When the cmos image of the present invention passes , can be with approximately parallel angle, by from the incidence of divergent shape derived from main lens 46 when sensor 49 couples with shooting main lens 46 After light (hollow arrow is signified in such as figure) is reduced by described the color filter 55, sense is nondestructively almost transferred to by optical fiber 54 The array of optical diode 51, the reflex that incident light occurs in 46 edge incidence of main lens is effectively reduced, so as to disappear Except BSI arrays can not thoroughly solve the problems, such as to respond during Ray obliquity incidence poor, it can also make photosensitive two with fiber coupling Pole pipe array can receive the incident light of light intensity be more uniformly distributed, high.Moreover, using the shielding action of optical fiber, can effectively suppress Existing crosstalk phenomenon between BSI pixel cells.Because the oblique incidence light tolerance to shooting main lens 46 edge is higher, make There must be the cmos image sensor 49 of concave curvatures 53 can be as eyes imaging system, matching optics structure is more succinct Lens design --- the number of lenses of main lens can reduce the half of at least a piece of, even original 6 numbers (i.e. such as this reality Apply 3 in example), and can ensure that the imaging under same view angle is more outstanding simultaneously, so as to greatly shorten the flange of main lens While focal length and whole imaging system size, do not decay from center to edge image quality, imaging results one are exported The very high digital picture of cause property.
