Description of the invention () Field of the invention: The present invention relates to the process of semiconductor color filters, especially a method for strengthening the tolerance of microlens manufacturing process. Background of the invention: As we enter the millennium, it is a trend to replace the negative film of traditional cameras with the photoelectric sensor and memory of digital cameras, and the blue indicator of liquid crystal display (lcd) to replace the traditional image tube. The above new rain products are convenient or light and thin. Generally, the S light < light sensor has two types of charge coupling device (CCD) complementary complementary metal oxide semiconductors (CM0s), and in order to make the electronic image signal can show the image Color, red, blue, and green primary color filter (c0Ur filter) is a necessary device, in addition to color 'another important factor that determines the price of LCD and digital camera products is one of the important factors This is the resolution of the product. High resolution means that the more detailed the image, the more it can arouse the purchase of customers. A higher resolution means that the number of photosensors is higher under the same surface area, but this also means that the sensing area of the photosensors will be reduced. Therefore, in order to remedy the weakening of the image signal caused by the reduction of the measurement area, the addition of microlenses on the color filter film is a necessary step. The following will take the color CMOS process as an example to introduce the traditional process technology.

The description of the invention is complicated. In order to improve this complicated step, the present invention is formed on the protective layer with photoresist, so only The lithography process is required. Second, in the traditional process, photoresist residues often accumulate at the junction of the connection platform board and the substrate of the photo-sensing element, which is not easy to remove. It is necessary to increase the exposure energy or time or extend the development time. Time to make it fully developed, and this will make the gap between the microlens prototypes of the microlens array part larger than the predetermined critical size CD. But if the above factors are considered The gap between the microlens prototypes has been kept small, but the small scum in the microlens prototype gap is too difficult to remove, which causes the microlens prototype to collapse during the reflow process. The dangers are counted together. The concept provided by this smoke is not to form an additional positive photoresist for engraving and parts. Before the reflow process, firstly apply a short period of time to remove residue from the plasma. The following description will be used to describe the content of the present invention in detail with reference to the table diagrams. The details of the present invention are as follows: The cross-sectional schematic diagram shown in FIG. 2 shows that a plurality of photovoltaic devices have been formed on a semiconductor substrate 110 by using a conventional process. The measuring element 1 1 5 is separated by a separation region 112, and a protective layer 114 includes a silicon nitride layer, a wire connection and a passivation layer in a predetermined micro lens area 120. According to a preferred embodiment, In other words, the protective layer is preferably a silicon nitride layer because of its good light transmittance. Next to the microlens area 120 is a bonding pad 118 that exposes a metal surface. Next, referring to the schematic cross-sectional view shown in FIG. 3, a first photosensitive material 130 is formed and coated on the wires and the protective layer. In a preferred embodiment, the first photosensitive material 130 is a photoresist layer, for example (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) This paper uses the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification ( 210X297 mm) 411501 A7 B7 Use another lithography technique to remove the material of the wiring platform board 1 1 8 V. Description of the invention (methacryl resin or acrylie re. Topography of the line, then M ^ ^) The first photosensitive material on the finished layer and the metal guide. For the lithography technology to remove the wiring platform board, please refer to the cross-sectional schematic diagram of the Fen film 140 process shown in Figure 4.-In general-the pixel; That is to say, there is a need for red and blue 厣 隹 = 厣 隹. This color wave film process needs to form a photoresist-like dyed-organic material. After each-dyed organic material is formed, lithography is required. After three times of lithography After the manufacturing process, a colored chirped film can be formed in the microlens area and the chirped material on the wiring platform board can be removed at the same time. Refer to the cross-sectional diagram shown in Figure 5. In order to make the focal length of the microlens more focused on the optical sensor on A second photosensitive material 150 is coated on the surface of the above result as a spacer.
