Abstract
An image sensor includes a color filter on a substrate, first and second organic photodiodes on the color filter, and first and second capacitors connected to the first and second organic photodiodes, respectively. The color filter is spaced apart from a first surface of the substrate. Each of the first and second organic photodiodes face an upper surface of the color filter. The first capacitor includes a first conductive pattern and a first insulating space. The first conductive pattern extends through the substrate, and the first insulating spacer surrounds a sidewall of the first conductive pattern and has a first thickness. The second capacitor includes a second conductive pattern and a second insulating spacer. The second conductive pattern extends through the substrate, and the second insulating spacer surrounds a sidewall of the second conductive pattern and has a second thickness smaller than the first thickness.
