Definitions
- the present invention relates to an imaging apparatus and an imaging method for detecting and receiving visible light and near-infrared light of three components having different wavelength ranges, and imaging both visible light and near-infrared light. . Background art
- Conventional visible light / near-infrared light imaging devices have a configuration in which pixels that can detect three colors with different visible light wavelengths and near-infrared light are mixed in the same image sensor, for example, a CCD or CMOS image sensor.
- a CCD or CMOS image sensor See, for example, JP-A-2002-142228, FIG. 2.
- an Mg (Magenta) color detector 81, a Ye (Yellow) color detector 82, a Cy (Cyan) color detector 83, and a near infrared light detector 84 are provided on the image sensor. They are arranged in a mosaic, and their combination is arranged vertically and horizontally.
- one detector corresponds to one pixel.
- naked pixels have the property of detecting visible light from 400 nm to 1000 nm to near-infrared light.
- an Mg color detector 81 is configured by covering a pixel with a band-pass filter plate near the Mg color.
- Each of the Ye color detector 82 and the Cy color detector 83 also has a configuration in which a band-pass filter plate that extracts the vicinity of each wavelength is covered by a pixel.
- naked pixels are arranged as the near-infrared light detector 84. To be precise, the visible light range needs to be cut, but it is only necessary to obtain the luminance information, so that the visible light range need not be cut. With the above configuration, images of both visible light and near-infrared light can be captured.
- three photodiodes having different depths from the surface are formed on a silicon substrate.
- This conventional device detects three types of light having different wavelengths in the visible light region, for example, using the difference in absorbance in blue, green, and red silicon (for example, , Japanese Translation of PCT International Publication No. 2002-513145, Figures 5 and 6).
- this visible light imaging device It is possible to arrange three photodiodes with different depths while being a single pixel. Therefore, this conventional technique can increase the color resolution and prevent image degradation due to false colors, as compared with the technique of detecting one color with one pixel.
- FIG. 11 shows a configuration of one pixel formed in the image sensor.
- an N-type doped region 92 made of an N-type semiconductor is formed on a P-type semiconductor substrate 91.
- a P-type doped region 93 is formed thereon.
- an N-type doped region 94 is formed thereon.
- a semiconductor three-layer structure (triple well structure) is formed on the substrate. Since the vicinity of each PN interface can function as a photosensor, a total of three photosensors can be configured.
- each pixel has one color (a limited wavelength range). ) Can only be detected. Other color and luminance information must be supplemented from information about neighboring pixels. As a result, the resolution of color and brightness is reduced, and a false color that is not the original color is generated.
- An optical system usually including an optical lens forms an image of an object on the image sensor surface.
- the focal point differs depending on the wavelength, so chromatic aberration occurs in imaging (when one color is in focus, another color is blurred).
- achromatic lens is provided so that the image sensor can be accommodated within the depth of focus (color blur is negligible within that range). Thereby, focus is achieved.
- the conventional visible light imaging device as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-5151315 is limited to a three-layer semiconductor doping structure and detects visible light. It is configured as follows. Therefore, when detecting the three primary colors of visible light, near-infrared light cannot be detected. Also, suppose that the depth of the photodiode is readjusted so that a total of three types of light, visible light and near-infrared light, can be detected. However, as described above, it is not possible to create a complete achromatic system for a very wide wavelength range from the visible light region to the near-infrared light castle (400 nm to 100 nm). .
- the present invention has been made to solve the above conventional problems. It is an object of the present invention to be able to obtain a clear color image with good color reproducibility by a visible light detecting means and at the same time to obtain clear luminance information or a black and white image by a near-infrared detecting means. Another object of the present invention is to provide a visible light / near infrared light imaging device and method.
- the imaging device according to the present invention is configured such that visible light and near-infrared light of three components having different wavelength ranges are emitted. T / JP2004 / 005799

It has three detectors for detecting, and the near-infrared light detecting means is provided at a position different in depth from the three detectors, and has a detector for detecting near-infrared light.
- a clear color image with good color reproducibility can be obtained by the visible light detecting means, and at the same time, clear luminance information or a black and white image can be obtained by the near-infrared detecting means.
- color images with good color reproducibility and high color resolution can be provided in the daytime, for example, and clear black and white images can be obtained by illuminating some lights even in dark places such as at night.

- the plurality of pixels are provided with visible light and near-infrared light of three components of blue, green, and red at different positions according to the wavelength dependence of the light absorption depth. It has detection means to detect with four detectors.
- Such a configuration is inferior to a configuration in which visible light and near-infrared light are detected by different pixels in terms of color reproducibility and detection loss.
- the effect is obtained that the resolution of both the color image and the near-infrared image can be similarly improved.
- the optical system means increases the focal length monotonically from light having a short wavelength of visible light to near-infrared light, so that the optical system means is close to visible light in three different wavelength ranges of blue, green, and red. It has a configuration in which infrared light and an image are formed at different positions.
- the three components of visible light and near-infrared light having different wavelength ranges are imaged at different positions depending on the wavelength, and the three-component visible light and the near-infrared light are formed. Detection is performed using the fact that the wavelength dependence of the light absorption depth is different, and images of both the visible light and the near-infrared light of the three components are taken.

- the visible light detector 6 includes a Blue (blue) detector 3, a Green (green) detector 4, and a Red (red) detector 5. These detectors 3 to 5 are photodiodes arranged at different depths from the surface. By independently obtaining the three primary colors, any color can be reproduced. Unlike the conventional example of Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-142422, one pixel can output three colors of visible light. As described in the explanation of the conventional example, in fact, it cannot be completely separated into three colors. However, the degree of contamination of each color can be known (or measurable) in advance, and correction is possible.

Shown in Figure 4 As described above, the configuration of the visible light detector 6 on the left side in the figure is almost the same as that of the conventional example. On a P-type semiconductor substrate 9, an N-type doped region 10 of an N-type semiconductor is formed. Similarly, a P-type doped region 11 is formed thereon. Further, an N-type doped region 12 is formed thereon. As a result, a semiconductor three-layer structure (triple well structure) is formed on the substrate. Then, the three current detectors 14, 15, and 16 detect the outputs of the visible lights B, G, and R.
