The light that face enters light collecting part 50 reflects to the direction of photodiode 11.
Fig. 4 a are the schematic diagrames of an example of the transmission path of light at the inclined-plane B being shown schematically in Fig. 3.Its
In, heavy black represents the interface (the inclined-plane B i.e. shown in Fig. 3) of two kinds of optical transmission mediums, and solid line with the arrow represents light two
Transmission path in kind transmission medium, chain-dotted line represent normal, and dotted line is the extended line of the transmission direction of incident light.In some realities
Apply in example, as shown in figure 3, being rolled over to reach the light for enter from inclined-plane A, B light collecting part 50 to the direction of photodiode 11
The effect penetrated is, it is necessary to which so that the refractive index of light collecting part 50 (or at least part of light collecting part 50 near inclined-plane A, B) is more than
The refractive index for the part being in contact with it on inclined-plane A, B.In this way, when light reflects from inclined-plane B into light collecting part 50, such as scheme
Shown in 4a, due to being to enter optically denser medium from optically thinner medium, its refraction angle r1 is less than incidence angle i1, so that the biography of incident light
Inside (i.e. towards the direction of photodiode 11) deviation is changed into defeated path so that and more light enter photodiode 11,
So as to improve the lightsensitivity of imaging sensor.Although Fig. 4 a merely illustrate an example of the transmission path of light at inclined-plane B, this
Art personnel are appreciated that at inclined-plane A that the transmission path of light is similar with shown in Fig. 4 a.
Fig. 4 b are the schematic diagrames of an example of the transmission path of light at the interface E being shown schematically in Fig. 3.Its
In, heavy black represents the interface (the interface E i.e. shown in Fig. 3) of two kinds of optical transmission mediums, and solid line with the arrow represents that light exists
Transmission path in two kinds of transmission mediums, chain-dotted line represent normal, and dotted line is the extended line of the transmission direction of incident light.At some
In embodiment, in order that the light from the entrance substrate 10 of light collecting part 50 is obtained not to external diffusion, to cause the photaesthesia of imaging sensor
Degree further improves, and the refractive index of light collecting part 50 (or at least part contacted with substrate 10 of light collecting part 50) is more than or waited
Refractive index in substrate 10 (or at least part contacted with light collecting part 50 of substrate 10).If refractive index of light collecting part 50 etc.
Refractive index in substrate 10 (or at least part contacted with light collecting part 50 of substrate 10), served as a contrast when light enters from light collecting part 50
During bottom 10, the transmission path of light does not change, i.e., light continues towards the direction biography of photodiode 11 as described previously
It is defeated, as shown in Figure 3.If the refractive index of light collecting part 50 is more than substrate 10, (or at least substrate 10 contacts with light collecting part 50
Part) refractive index, as shown in Figure 4 b, when light from light collecting part 50 enter substrate 10 when, due to being dredged from optically denser medium into light
Medium, its refraction angle r2 is more than incidence angle i2, so that the transmission path of incident light changes into inside deviation, shown in Fig. 3
Imaging sensor compare, enable to more light to enter photodiode 11, so that the photaesthesia of imaging sensor
Degree further improves.Although Fig. 4 b merely illustrate the transmission path of the interface E part light below the inclined-plane B one shows
Example, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the interface E of light collecting part 50 and substrate 10 various pieces (such as interface E position
Part below inclined-plane A) light transmission path it is similar with shown in Fig. 4 b.
In certain embodiments, as shown in figure 3, light collecting part 50 can contact with substrate 10, i.e., in light collecting part 50 and substrate
Other optical transmission mediums are not present between 10, so that the light after the refraction of light collecting part 50 is directly over light collecting part 50 and lining
The interface E at bottom 10, and be no longer pass through the interface of other two kinds of optical transmission mediums, so as to avoid by light collecting part 50 to
The light of the direction refraction of photodiode 11 changes the transmission path of light by unnecessary refraction or reflection again.
In certain embodiments, the surface of light collecting part 50 could be formed with ARC, so that more luminous energy
Enough enter light collecting part 50 rather than reflected away by its surface so that more light enter photodiode 11, so that figure
As the lightsensitivity of sensor further improves.
In certain embodiments, as shown in figure 5, imaging sensor is except being included in the substrate 10 described in above example
Outside light collecting part 50, packed layer 20 can also be included.Packed layer 20 is located at the top of light collecting part 50 and covers light collecting part 50
Surface.As described above, to enter the light of light collecting part 50 to the side of photodiode 11 from the inclined-plane of light collecting part 50 to reach
To the effect of refraction, it is necessary to which so that the refractive index of light collecting part 50 (or at least part of light collecting part 50 near inclined-plane) is more than
The refractive index of packed layer 20 (or at least part contacted with light collecting part 50 of packed layer 20).In this way, work as light from light collecting part
50 inclined-plane into light collecting part 50 reflect when, the transmission path of incident light changes into inside deviation, as shown by dotted line L51
Light transmission path, so, it is possible so that more light enter photodiode 11, so as to improve the photosensitive of imaging sensor
Sensitivity.
In certain embodiments, packed layer 20 has colour filter function, to allow the light of particular range of wavelengths by so as to entering
Enter photodiode 11.Packed layer 20 with colour filter function can be made up of pigment or dye materials, and these materials can be permitted
Perhaps the light of some wavelength is passed through.In certain embodiments, can allow by feux rouges, blue light or green glow.In other implementations
In example, it can allow by cyan, yellow or wine-colored light.But these simply have the packed layer 20 of colour filter function
The example color that can be filtered, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the packed layer 20 with colour filter function in the disclosure may be used also
To allow the light of other colors to pass through.In addition, the packed layer 20 with colour filter function can also be made up of other materials, such as can
Enough reflectorized materials for reflecting away the light of specific wavelength etc..
In certain embodiments, packed layer 20 has the function that flat upper surface is provided for structure disposed thereon.Fill out
Filling layer 20 can be formed by dielectric substance, for example, oxide or nitride etc..
In certain embodiments, as shown in figure 5, imaging sensor is except being included in the substrate 10 described in above example
Outside light collecting part 50, optics shielding portion 30 can also be included.Optics shielding portion 30 is located on substrate 10 and limits image sensing
The border of each photosensitive device of device, so as to form optics shielding between each photosensitive device of imaging sensor, to reduce
Interference of the incident light to neighbouring photosensitive device.In certain embodiments, optics shielding portion 30 is formed by reflectorized material.At some
In embodiment, optics shielding portion 30 can be formed by metal material, such as tungsten or copper.
