Abstract
A reworking method to remove color filter film from a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor. In this method, the color filter film, including a planar film and a color film, is formed after the passivation of a CMOS device. Whether the color filter film is pre-baked or not, the reworking method of the invention is suitable. The method includes a plasma process, a solvent process, and a plasma process, which are sequentially performed.
