An image sensor includes a pixel array including a first shared pixel and a second shared pixel that are adjacent to each other in a row direction. The first shared pixel includes two or more photo diodes in a first row and two or more photo diodes in a second row, and the first shared pixel includes a first floating diffusion region shared by the photo diodes of the first shared pixel. The second shared pixel includes two or more photo diodes in the first row and two or more photo diodes in the second row, and the second shared pixel includes a second floating diffusion region shared by the photo diodes of the second shared pixel.

Pixel circuit and image sensor including thereof

A touch screen panel including a substrate comprising an active area and a non-active area positioned outside the active area, first and second sensing electrodes formed over the active area, wherein the first sensing electrodes connected along a first direction, and wherein the second sensing electrodes connected along a second direction that intersects the first direction, and outside wiring lines formed in the non-active area to connect the first and second sensing electrodes to an external driving circuit in units of lines and having at least one of slits that cross insides of the outside wiring lines so that widths of conductive paths are reduced in partial sections.

A method for forming an HSG (hemispherical grain) layer on a storage electrode of a capacitor formed on a substrate is provided. The method includes a step of introducing a source gas into a reacting chamber to deposit a small amount of HSG nuclei on a conductive layer pattern of a capacitor electrode during a step of stabilizing the substrate temperature. After the substrate temperature is stabilized, a larger amount of source gas is introduced into the chamber to form additional HSG nuclei. Thereafter, a step of annealing is performed to form the HSG layer.
