Abstract
An image sensor includes a first structure including a first substrate, and a first internal wiring structure on the first substrate. The first substrate includes an active pixel region and a through electrode region around the active pixel region. The first internal wiring structure includes a plurality of first internal wiring patterns. The image sensor further includes a second structure including a second substrate and a second internal wiring structure on the second substrate. The second substrate is arranged on the first substrate. The image sensor additionally includes a through electrode layer arranged in the through electrode region to at least partially fill a through electrode trench, which penetrates the first substrate, and to connect the first internal wiring structure to the second internal wiring structure.
