An image sensor comprising a semiconductor of a first conductivity type having a plurality of pixels formed thereon; and a region heavily doped with the first conductivity type semiconductor beneath the pixels formed such that there is a gradient formed within the semiconductor below the pixels that is capable of directing photogenerated electrons toward the pixels and away from the heavily doped region. The gradient is formed by having a more lightly doped layer formed upon the heavily doped layer and allowing a gradient to from around the junction of the two layers.
