An over 120 dB wide-dynamic-range 3.0 μm pixel image sensor with in-pixel capacitor of 41.7 fF/um2 and high reliability enabled by BEOL 3D capacitor process
We realized a simultaneous-capture wide-dynamic-range image sensor with 3.0 μm pixels using novel in-pixel 3D capacitors located in BEOL. We achieved high capacitance density of 41.7 fF/μm2 and low leakage current density of 3.6×10−10 A/cm2 at 1 V by applying 3D structure and optimizing dielectric deposition process. TDDB investigations showed that estimated failure time at 125°C is more than 10 years. We demonstrated over 120 dB dynamic range image sensor with 3.0 μm pixels, which is enabled by this BEOL 3D capacitor process technology.
