Abstract

Image sensor pixels, imaging systems, and methods for constructing image sensor pixels. The image sensor pixel includes a photosensitive region, a charge storage node, a deep trench isolation, and a spectral router. The charge storage node is positioned on a back-side of the photosensitive region. The deep trench isolation extends from a front-side of the photosensitive region toward the charge storage node. The spectral router is positioned on the front-side of the photosensitive region. The spectral router is configured to route photons of a first wavelength received at the spectral router into the photosensitive region and away from the charge storage node. The spectral router is also configured to route photons of a second wavelength received at the spectral router to one or more neighboring image sensor pixels.
