Abstract
An image sensor includes a substrate including a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a pixel separation part in the substrate, the pixel separation part separating a plurality of pixels from each other, the plurality of pixels including first to fourth pixels in a clockwise direction, the pixel separation part including a first part between the first and second pixels, and a second part between the first pixel and the third pixel. Each of the first part and the second part includes a first dielectric pattern covering a lateral surface of the substrate, and a first silicon pattern covering a lateral surface of the first dielectric pattern. The second part further includes a second silicon pattern adjacent to a sidewall of the first silicon pattern. The second silicon pattern has a rhombic shape in a plan view.
