Abstract

See full text

An imaging sensor pixel comprises a highly resistive N doped semiconductor layer with a front side and a back side. At the front side, there are at least a light sensing region, a transfer gate adjacent to the light sensing region and a P-well region. The P-well region surrounds the light sensing region and the transfer gate region, and comprises at least a floating diffusion region and a first electrode outside of the floating diffusion region, wherein a first negative voltage is applied to the first electrode. The transfer gate couples between the light sensing region and the floating diffusion region. At the back side, there is a back side P+ doped layer comprising a second electrode formed on the back side P+ doped layer, wherein a second negative voltage is applied to the second electrode. The second negative voltage is more negative than the first negative voltage.
