Abstract
Multi-microlens arrays for optimizing light collection efficiency in CCD/CMOS solid-state color image cameras with L-shaped or non-regular photodetector areas are disclosed. Microelectronic fabrication methods for forming planar array multi-microlenses comprised of elements consisting of lens-pairs, integrated with color-filters, and compatible with CMOS high-volume manufacturing are taught. Experimental results demonstrating the processes for fabrication of multi-microlenses for L-shaped and for non-regular sensing areas are given.
