Abstract
The invention discloses a global shutter CMOS image sensor. Each pixel unit of the global shutter CMOS image sensor includes a photo diode, a storage region and a first reset region, wherein the photo diode includes a first photosensitive doped region; a gate structure of a first transfer transistor is formed between the storage region and the first photosensitive doped region; a gate structure of a global shutter transistor is formed between the first reset region and the first photosensitive doped region; and inhomogeneous potentials are formed in the first photosensitive doped region through a doping structure. According to the invention, photo-induced carriers in the PDs of the pixel units, especially photo-induced carriers in the PDs of large pixel units, can be simultaneously and completely transferred to the storage region and the first reset region, and the overall performance of the device is improved.
