A color filter pattern including a plurality of color filters arranged in a pattern and the manufacturing method thereof are provided. By performing at least one two-stage exposure process to a color filter layer, the plurality of color filters are formed with a sharp profile.

Color filter pattern and manufacturing method thereof

A wafer cleaning device comprising a wafer stage for holding a wafer having a surface to be washed, a first nozzle positioned above the wafer, a second nozzle positioned above the wafer. A first height is between the first nozzle and the surface and a second height is between the second nozzle and the surface, wherein the first height is shorter than the second height.

Wafer cleaning device and method thereof

Color filter and manufacturing method thereof

Wafer cleaning device

A method for fabricating an image sensor is disclosed. First, a semiconductor substrate is provided, in which a photosensitive region is defined on the semiconductor substrate. At least one photosensitive material is then formed on the semiconductor substrate, and a first exposure process is performed to form a tapered pattern in the photosensitive material. A second exposure process is performed to form a straight foot pattern in the photosensitive material, and a developing process is performed to remove the tapered pattern and straight foot pattern to form the photosensitive material into a plurality of photosensitive blocks. A reflow process is conducted thereafter to form the photosensitive blocks into a plurality of microlenses.

Method for fabricating an image sensor

A method of fabricating an image sensor device is provided. First, a substrate comprising a pixel array region and a pad region is provided. A patterned metal layer and a first planarization layer having an opening exposing the patterned metal layer in the pad region are sequentially formed on the substrate. A color filter array is formed on the first planarization layer in the pixel array region. A second planarization layer is formed to cover the color filter array and filled into the opening. A plurality of microlens is formed above the color filter array on the second planarization layer. A capping layer is conformally formed on the microlens and the second planarization layer. An etching step is performed to remove the capping layer and the second planarization layer in the opening so as to expose the patterned metal layer in the pad region.
