Abstract
An image sensing device may include: a substrate including a back side and a front side; imaging pixels configured to receive incident light from the back side and each structured to produce photocharge in response to the received incident light at each imaging pixel; a plurality of taps located at a depth from the front side of the substrate and configured to generate a current within the substrate and capture photocharge generated by the imaging pixels and migrated by the current, wherein the plurality of taps is distributed in the imaging pixels such that two or more of the plurality of taps are located within each imaging pixel; and a capping region formed in each imaging pixel to surround the two or more taps included in each imaging pixel, wherein a lower portion of the capping region is spaced apart from the back side by a predetermined distance.
