In the present embodiment, the reduction process are as follows: chemical mechanical milling tech.In other embodiments, described to be thinned Technique are as follows: wet-etching technology.
Referring to FIG. 8, forming red green filter on 203 surface of third area III third face after second reduction processing Mating plate 241 forms red blue optical filter 242 on the 4th area, 203 surface, IIII third face.
It should be noted that the red green optical filter 241 can penetrate feux rouges, green light, the red blue optical filtering can be also penetrated Piece 242 can light transmission feux rouges, can also penetrate blue light.
In the present embodiment, after second reduction processing, the red green optical filter 241 and red blue optical filter are formed Before 242, further includes: form third adhesion layer 243 on 230 third face of the second substrate, 203 surface.
The third adhesion layer 243 is used to increase red green optical filter 241 and red blue optical filter 242 and the second substrate 230 Adhesiveness improves structural stability, to improve the performance of the imaging sensor of formation.
The material of the third adhesion layer 243 includes: silica, silicon nitride or fire sand.In the present embodiment, institute The material for stating third adhesion layer 243 is silica.
By the way that the fourth face 204 to be bonded towards the first face 201, when incident light is from the third face 203 of the second substrate 230 When irradiation, the incident light first passes around red green optical filter 241 and red blue optical filter 242.When the second thickness is less than first Thickness, the i.e. thickness of the second substrate 230 less than the first substrate 200 thickness when, lesser second substrate 230 of thickness can It absorbs through most of green light in red green optical filter 241 and through most of blue light in red blue optical filter 242.Meanwhile Lesser second substrate 230 of thickness is through most of feux rouges.And then most of feux rouges penetrates second substrate 230, continue into The feux rouges filter layer 222 positioned at 201 surface of the first 200 first face of substrate is penetrated, biggish first substrate 200 of thickness can absorb greatly Part feux rouges.To sum up, second substrate 230 can fully absorb green light and blue light, and first substrate 200 can sufficiently inhale Feux rouges is received, while first substrate 200 and the second substrate 230 are different substrates, do not need more occupied space areas, thus In the identical situation of area, pixel quantity can be increased, so that the image quality of imaging sensor is higher.
In the present embodiment, it is formed after the red green optical filter 241 and red blue optical filter 242, further includes: respectively in institute It states red green optical filter 241 and red blue 242 surface of optical filter forms lenticule 250.
The present invention also provides a kind of imaging sensors formed using the above method, with continued reference to FIG. 8, including: first Substrate 200, first substrate 200 include opposite the first face 201 and the second face 202, and first substrate 200 has first Thickness;Red filter layer 222 positioned at 201 surface of the first face, the red filter layer 222 have the in first face 201 One projecting figure;The second substrate 230 in the red filter layer 222, second substrate 230 include opposite third Face 203 and fourth face 204, and the fourth face 204 is towards the first face 201, second substrate 200 include third area III and 4th area IIII, the third area III and the 4th area IIII have the second projecting figure, and described the in first face 201 For two projecting figures within the scope of first projecting figure, second substrate 230 has second thickness, and the second thickness Less than first thickness;Red green optical filter 241 positioned at 203 surface of third area III third face is located at the 4th area IIII The red blue optical filter 242 on 203 surface of third face.
When incident light is irradiated from the third face 203 of the second substrate 230, the incident light first passes around red green optical filter 241 and red blue optical filter 242.Since the lesser substrate of thickness is conducive to the absorption to green light and blue light, the biggish substrate of thickness Be conducive to the absorption to feux rouges, therefore, when the second thickness is less than first thickness, i.e., the thickness of the second substrate 230 is less than the When the thickness of one substrate 200, lesser second substrate 230 of thickness can be absorbed through the big portion in red green optical filter 241 Divide green light and through most of blue light in red blue optical filter 242.Meanwhile lesser second substrate 230 of thickness penetrates big portion Dividend light.And then most of feux rouges penetrates second substrate 230, continues incident positioned at 201 surface of the first 200 first face of substrate Feux rouges filter layer 222, biggish first substrate 200 of thickness can absorb most of feux rouges.To sum up, second substrate 230 Green light and blue light can be fully absorbed, first substrate 200 can fully absorb feux rouges, while 200 He of the first substrate Second substrate 230 is different substrate, more occupied space areas is not needed, to can increase in the identical situation of area Pixel quantity, so that the image quality of imaging sensor is higher.
