Abstract
Provided are methods of fabricating an image sensor. Embodiments of such methods can include forming a first gate insulation layer in a first region of a semiconductor substrate and a first gate electrode layer, to cover the first gate insulation layer and forming a second gate insulation layer within a nitrogen enhanced atmosphere and a second gate electrode layer in a second region of the semiconductor substrate. The methods also include patterning the first gate electrode layer and the first gate insulation layer of the first region to form a first gate pattern and patterning the second gate electrode layer and the second gate insulation layer of the second region to form a second gate pattern.
