Abstract

In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to an image sensor, including a first photodiode and a second photodiode disposed in a semiconductor substrate. A floating diffusion node is disposed along a frontside of the semiconductor substrate and between the first and second photodiodes. A partial backside deep trench isolation (BDTI) structure is disposed within the semiconductor substrate and between the first and second photodiodes. The partial BDTI extends from a backside of the semiconductor substrate and is spaced from the floating diffusion node. A full BDTI structure extends from the backside of the semiconductor substrate to the frontside of the semiconductor substrate.
